Brisbane


Sunrise from our apartment....Trish and I were invited to join Donna at a Park Run...


Driving over the Story Bridge on our way to the Park Run...


Neither Trish nor I had ever participated in a Park Run...Donna is recovering from a hip replacement so we three walked the five kilometres. The route took us along the river which I enjoyed.



After we had finished the walk Trish, Donna and I had coffee and toast at a nearby cafe overlooking the river. Unusual birds!!


Our school reunion which was to celebrate 50 years since our graduation from High School  was held in the Story Bridge Hotel...


It was a fabulous venue....we hired a large room with it's own bar and people could move around to chat and also buy their own drinks and food. We were all so thrilled to meet each other after many years....there were lots of  stories and plenty of laughter.


Canice and Trish were my best friends at St Rita's.


Donna, Nanette, Christine and I were all in the same Grade 1 class at St Cecilia's Primary School ....and then we all went to St Rita's.


My Grade 1 Photo....Christine is in the middle row 4th from the left....Nanette is in the front row first from the left and I am next to her. Donna is also in the first row second from the right.


That evening the girls surprised me with a birthday cake ...


What a marvellous day it was...
