The last week has been flat out.
Where do I start ?
...Our big day out with the lovable Red monster Elmo .
.... Or a little update on everything.
We spent 4 -5 days at the farm last week came home late Friday night. Saturday, we had been invited to attend Ready, Set, Grover ! with Elmo.( I'll tell you more about this later with a new giveaway.)

This Thursday I am going to a Blogger's brunch in Sydney ...by train.
The same afternoon we are heading to the farm with our caravan in tow to help my Father in law (almost 84yrs and still working) muster , then drench his cows and tag all the new calves . It means a slight delay in our departure to Victoria.
It will take two days ; one to muster about 150 cattle from over 1000 acres and the next to apply the drench. I just watch ...mostly.

We think this calf is one from the cow Grandpa gave Joel. It was so tiny and freshly hatched by looks of it. |
I am also planning on meeting up with a few URL friends bloggy / Internet I haven't had the pleasure of meeting in real life yet.
I am quite excited and very nervous.
Now ...
I guess you have all waited long enough for the winners of the giveaways...

Congratulations to all the winners.
Thanks for all the creative entries and participation. I couldn't do it without you.
I have more giveaways in the pipeline and a lot more to update but it is already after midnight.
I email the winners tomorrow unless they read this post first.
The last few days I have found it difficult to get started on writing any posts. I've had personal stuff to deal with as well.
I think I hit a plateau and everything all at once seems overwhelming but I am getting on top of it.

We had so many real adventures when we traveled, some people don't believe us and say they wished that had happened to them on their trip because theirs was so boring! Some of them I would gladly swap. Like our knife fighting taxi driver in the middle of the road on the side of the mountain in Vietnam and the blown tire in Africa in the middle of no where on a deserted dirt road and we got rescued by a random gravel road grader who just happened to be coming past (how lucky) he had one leg, eye patch and a shot gun by his side! I look back now and have a laugh but at the time it was crazy and scary!
