Christian Salmon: April 2007

Natalie, Liliana and I recently got the opportunity to slip away from Melbourne and fly up to North. The main reason was to introduce Liliana to her two Great Grandmothers, Jean Salmon and Grace Bull. We flew out on Saturday Morning and left the Gold Coast on Tuesday Morning. Natalie returning to Melbourne, I flew to Sydney for a work do. Anyway, it was a truly great trip, we crammed so much in and saw heaps of family that we didn't expect! Anyway here are some of the photos:

Saturday morning 21 April 07, Liliana's first moments on Tweed soil, in Mum's lovely backyard. I really miss the lush green of the Tweed.

First stop - Great Grandmother Jean Salmon (Nan to all i the know). A fantastic surprise was great Aunt Perry (and Craig) who happened to be in the area for a visit!

We all headed of to the Tweed River regional art gallery for lunch.

Great views from the cafe

Liliana in all her chubby beauty with her Murwillumbah t-shirt, very pretty!

Natalie's Aunt (Liliana's great Aunt) and family made a surprise visit from Kingscliff.

A family shot, I'm looking pretty scruffy, everybody else looks great!

What a hug!!!!

Saturday Afternoon, Next stop, Mullumbimby, 'The Witches Cauldron" and dear friend Clinton! Beer, wine cheese and Indian made for a good night, Liliana was great!

Sunday 22, drove up to Murwillumbah to fetch Mum and gate crashed Nan's Birthday party. What a bunch of Beautiful ladies!!

Sunday afternoon 22, We drove down to Byron and met up with Clinton again for some fish and chips on the beach. After a coffee we said our goodbyes and headed back up to Mum's.

On the Monday we hot footed it up to Bris Vegas to spend some time with Great Grandmother Grace Bull. Grace put on a lovely spread and we had a very relaxed couple of hours.

So relaxed that of our team just had to have a nap! First time I have put Liliana down and she has fallen asleep instantly

In the Kitchen, Nat's eying off the biscuits

One at a time, please

Three generations of beautiful ladies!!

Nat, Liliana and Grace

Last but not least we caught up with our dear friend Jackie, we had some take away Vietnamese and headed back to Tweed Heads to Mum's home absolutely happily exhausted ready to fly out the next day.
