- the drive north went smoothly and we arrived in good time
- I was able to spend time chatting with Mum while A checked in with Grandma
- both were in good form all weekend
- a relaxed start to Saturday, lunch with Dad, and time to pop into town for a look around the shops (I may have bought some yarn...)
- Oma seemed tired and frail, but perked up as we chatted. We were encouraged to see she's still got her sense of humour and strong spirit despite her hip op.
- chatting during tea after church
- lunch with G&T, and I've finally got a proper pic of their wedding blanket I made last year
- another good drive, this time going home
- phonecalls to say we're home and start thinking when to meet up again.
It's been good to be able to see almost everyone. Hard to see older relatives getting frail, but encouraging to share laughs together.
