Friday - Socialising

On Friday morning, we went out to see our flame-haired sis-in-law, Fiona, and her 4 kids; it was good to see them all. While there, Fiona's daughter, Grace, asked me to draw a flower - I drew one, and said, "This is half-tree, half-flower, and it eats giant flying insects!! Like, insects that are about 30cms across...and land on Earth & come out of spaceships!" She ran off, came back, and said, "You mean like this?" , pointing at an entry in a book about Dangerous Plants - the Venus Flytrap! "Yes, exactly like that," I smiled. "We have one at home!" After visiting there for a couple of hours, we went off & bought a Tent (scary!). On the way back to the car, I met another Dr.Who fan, for the first time - hope to meet him & his properly some time. He asked for my email address, so we may yet meet up in the future!

This arvo, we all went to the Park 'round the corner from here; Jamie went "Fishing;" mostly he caught leaves, but he didn't mind! :) Before he started, I met a stranger there - Kristin, from Jackson, Michigan. She is here in Christchurch visiting her grandchildren.
