A Different View

When we first arrived in Singapore late in 2005 there was not a single building around the One 15 Degree Marina pond. Now the whole basin is surrounded by apartment blocks, a soon to be finished "W" hotel, a multi-story car park and the One Degree 15 Marina Club. Back in 2005 the marina was "occupied" by international cruising sailors (paying peppercorn rents), and then we had a lot of fun .... now it is a floating parking lot full of large white motor boats which are maintained by permanent crew. We're glad that cruising yachts still visit on a regular basis to enjoy the luxury of One15, and the ease of shopping and provisioning in sensational Singapore. It is still great value.
OMG - My Younger Brother is 50 !

| Happy Birthday Pete! |
Peter turned 50 in March, and we flew back home for ten days.
What a party that was - the time flew by - only my brother Pete could have three different parties on three different days at three different locations, for three different groups of friends - and every party was great !
Here is a link to Pete's birthday photos.
We still found time for visiting our friends, some shopping and of course playing with our gorgeous grandson, Harrison.

Ain't he cute....
Harrison is now 6 months old. He wakes up with a smile on his face and it lasts the whole day through - such a joy for all his family.
His first tooth was cut whilst we were in Melbourne and his mum Sarah tells me that the second one is on its way. Harrison is moving backwards, a precursor to crawling forwards ...another milestone soon we hope.
Although he's challenging his parents with his sleeping habits, Harrison's wake up cuddles and smiles just melt your heart.
