Summer 2010-2011– 7 November 2010 to 10 March 2011

We spent the antipodean summer enjoying Thanksgiving and Christmas with our children and friends in the United States.

We had a holiday in Nassau on New Providence Island in the Bahamas which we enjoyed very much.  We stayed in the old fashioned Colonial Hilton with a great view of Nassau Harbor.


We did not need a holiday from our holiday but it was very enjoyable.  We had afternoon tea at Government House and watched the changing of the guard, saw the marching Flamingo’s at the zoo and visited Harbor Island and Ships Passage Cay.


The trip to Ships Passage Cay had the best organized, safest snorkeling program we have ever been on.

We patted stingrays and swam with and watched our hosts wrestle sharks, a bit nerve wracking for Australians.


We were glad to be away from the floods and cyclone Yasi in Australia.  It was good to return to Kunda Park to find that our caravan was safe and dry. We had selected the storage facility carefully, it was high up on a hill and beyond any possible flood and behind a mountain to give some protection from cyclones, which fortunately went further north this year.
