Waterskiing in Texas

Although waterskiing isn't really my thing, it's great to see the kids get out there and have a go. I particularly love watching Lucie, who has a natural ability for it. And Max has become a lot more confident in the water. Here's a snapshot of a day on the lake . . .

Texas Adventure

So here we are in Texas having a fabulous and relaxing time eating, drinking, swimming and waterskiing (well, not me, but everyone else). It's always exciting coming here to see Dan's family - the actual journey on the plane and then finally arriving to a whole new world miles away from our life in Melbourne. And it is totally different. It's true what they say - everything is bigger in Texas! The cars are bigger, the meals are bigger, the houses and freeways. And yes, people do wear the hats and boots. I still love my home in comparison, though, and I don't think I could move to Texas forever.

We went to a fantastic flea market in Canton and picked up some fantastic old licence plates and cow hides. I can't wait to get them beck to the shop and get busy with some visual merchandising! Till then, enjoy the pics . . .
