Today we leave Betty and Surrey, and fly through so many time zones. We leave Sydney at 3:15pm on the 27th, and arrive in Albany at 11:30pm on the 27th. We had the suitcases packed and ready in the morning, and left for the airport, Betty our driver, around noon.
Betty surprised me by taking me to visit a fabric shop nearby in Loftus, a place I had visited with her on another visit. It was fun to see such a variety of fabric, notions, patterns, etc. for knitting, croching, and other hobbies besides quilting. We admired all the available and colorful fabrics, but left only with a few "souvenir" fat quarters, which Betty later gave to me for my "birthday".
We were so glad that we had a vacation with Betty and Surrey, (in summer) and were just " at home" enjoying the days with them, and the rest of the family. No hustle or bustle as a tourist. It was a very relaxing time for chat, laughter, sewing, TV programs, ( including cricket), the water lily project, and just being together as friends. They are very special people in our lives.
