Another good night’s sleep. Susan had left around 5 am for
the airport. She had a meeting in San Francisco and Oscar left about 6. So I
woke the kids up. After breakfasts they went to school. A bit of housework and
then I walked Churro. It was a wonderful day. Warm and sunny.
After walking Churro, it was time to walk to the shops to
get some items. However the queues would seem to indicate that everyone else
was shopping early too. Every shop had
long queues waiting to be served. Some were really grumpy shoppers and there
was one very abusive man who held up other shoppers while the manager tried to
calm him down. At the same shop two English
women were deriding all Americans and their customs. Interesting situation.
They were obviously living here. I did wonder why, when they obviously had very
little love of the country.

Eventually I had completed my jobs and walked up the hill to
get a coffee (You can get a coffee with almond milk here) I sat in the sunshine
and drank it before setting off for home. I had lunch outside then did some
sewing out there too, before preparing dinner. Chicken, frittata followed by
apple cake. The kids returned from school. I had dinner with them. Susan had
sent a message to say that her plane was delayed in San Francisco. I cleaned up
after dinner then tried to check in on the Qantas site, but they had a problem
online. So I downloaded photos and typed up today’s news. I may need to return
to the shops tomorrow for a Christmas jumper for Sarah. We have a parcel to
send to them from here and there is enough space for a jumper.
