JUNE 2016

Hello darling Em,

I forgot to post about our trip last month to the Midlands Saddle and trout resort.  We visited the animal farm.

 

You touched the horses - and you went on a pony ride!

 

 

  

 

 

You also baked biscuits and played a card game.

 You enjoyed cream scones for afternoon tea

And, as always, you had your nails done at the beauty SPA

 

It is autumn in May and June and the trees were all changing colours whilst we were there.

 

Your Mom showed you how to hit the ball at Putt-Putt and you joined in playing a few holes

 

 

In June we all went to the Game Reserves, Finn and I to iMfolozi with his cricket friends, you with Mom and Dad, Granny-Laura and Gavin to Hluhluwe.  We met up with you and did a bit of game viewing in Hluhluwe.

You had a sleep over and I bought you a new 'Frozen' puzzle which you

managed to do all by yourself!

   The certificate says "This young lady never stops smiling. always gives of her best and she loves to chat too!  Emily Nilse we are so pleased you chose to come to La Lucia this year"

At the end of June, I led a group of 13 hikers from Switzerland to Rome. We crossed the Alps into Italy and had a wonderful walk through farms, sunflowers, olives, chestnuts and up and down the hills of Tuscany.  As always, Ellie (your little finger puppet) was attached to my backpack and travelled with me all the way to Rome!
