England to Berlin










Mum and Dad were up early and got to the hotel where their tour departed from. So they didn't stay up to see the Fireworks last night. They arrived at White Cliffs of Dover to head off to France.

We got up at a reasonable time and had a lazy morning. Rob drove us to the airport, saying the public transport would have been awful on a public holiday. We were very grateful. Phil sat in the front with Rob, while Alexander, Cameron and I snoozed in the back seat. 

We hope Kylie, Rob and Oliver will come over for a visit to Berlin. 

We had arranged to meet my penfriend, Charlotte and her family at the airport for a few hours before we left. Charlotte and Declan brought champagne, and trifle to eat! So we sat in the food court and looked very posh! It was a lot of fun! I forgot to take a photo. Their children Dan, and Sophie are gorgeous!  

We hope we have some visitors this year! We arrived back in Berlin to a mass of snow everywhere, and we hope it will be good for snowmen and sledding!

Sounds like you had a nice break away - and wonderful to meet up with your penpal :) I envy you those short plane trips to get to exotic places - it's not quite the same to pop over to Hobart or NZ ;P
