So, 2019, simply a summary posting for this year as no overseas travel.

Following the birth of our daughter in April 2018, 2019 saw us largely stay at home. 

We had a surprise visit in Perth from an old friend from my Germany working days in Sigi in April. Unlike our time in Germany in 2006 where we were both single, this catch up saw us both married with two children in tow (similarly to myself, Sigi had a boy and a girl, in that order). It was great to catch up after all this time and show Sigi and his family around a litle bit (mainly Kings Park and Elizabeth quay)

We did travel up the Western Australian coast back to one of our favourite spots, Broome, in June. We travelled with my Mum and Dad and stayed at the Pearle of Cable Beach in a three bed unit with its own pool. It was a very nice place to stay. My Grandmother also came with us but stayed at Cable Beach Club. This was pretty handy as Cable Beach Club has some great facilities such as a large playground, including water playground, and beautiful pools, complete with pool toys, which the kids (well, Josh at least) absolutely loved.

Christmas was spent in Perth, hosting my family at our house, while Amanda's family satyed at the Eastern coast.
