A Visit to Morninton Peninsula

Last weekend we had the pleasure of visiting the costal town of Blairgowrie on Mornington Peninsula. Our friends Drew and Emma have a family holiday home near the beach. It was a nice time with the family. Unfortunately most of the three-day holiday weekend consisted of rain showers. We made the best of our time spending a few hours in the water throwing a "waboba" ball. Waboba's are great fun. You can skip this ball across the water like a flat, smooth rock. Mariella is not nearly as excited as I am about the ball. It is ok because my excitement for playing with the Waboba is more than enough for both of us. : )

Today we went with Grandma Win to have afternoon tea with the good people working at Focus on the Family Australia. It was good to see some of the people I worked with while volunteering for Focus six years ago. After the encouraging visit we went up to the Dandenong Mountains for some lunch and walking through the forest. Along the way we spotted a bunch of birds along the road. We had a blast feeding our "fowl" mouth friends.

We are greatly encouraged by our time with wonderful people. God's providence is clearly evident. Christ continues to work in and around us changing us for the better.
