Long trip home

Today is Saturday 20 th April. I am sitting here at Luxe salon in Randwick having an overhaul on my hair. My head is covered in tin foil and waiting for the colour to take. Well overdue for the colour and it is quite long. Soo we will wait and see how beautiful Deago can make me.
Huge downpour of rain as I was coming here in the red Barina and the day is overcast. Reece has gone off to meet Trish Cocks who has been here with Phoebe. They are meeting at the Paddington Markets .
Long trip home. We trained to Rome then had a night at hotel very close to the station. Did the bus tour the next day then went out to the Hilton Hotel at the airport as we had an early flight much ,ore convenient . Plane late leaving Rome and very ordinary BA business lass still it was only 2.5 hours. Fabulous flight fromLondon to KL in Malaysian new 380 aircraft. Heaps of space and the 14 hours was OK. Quick connection in KL and as we were about to board Reece realised he had left his iPad on the plane.....oops ...they couldn't get it and he was disappointed as they didn't hold out high hopes to retrieve it.so no iPad. KL to Sydney 7.5 flying hours and not the smart 380, however, very comfy. Watched many movies one of which was Jack Reacher ( Tom cruise) sorry cant come to grips with him ESP playing jack as he is over six foot in the books.
Arrived Sydney to find our luggage diet come with us. Oh dear. Thank goodness I had packed those nickers and t shirt as I was going to shower in KL but no time. So a night at Coogee Bay Hotel. Such a treat to have a decent big shower, ie regular size for Australia but Italians have extremely small shower areas..
Fri am thrilled to see Jo, Lucas and Emily. Emily walking like a champ and Lucas a bundle of joy. Kisses and hugs all round. Then we got settled into the apartment. It is extremely comfy and well appointed. Mum you will really like it. Red Barina has a parking spot. Very close to Jo. She is looking great. Her hair quite short now. Will see Rich tonight when we go for dinner to Luke Nguyen restaurant the red lantern. Really good to be home .....fabulous holiday....
Hoping everyone is OK
Lots of love
Penelope
