Just Another Day in Paradise

 It's winter here from June 1 to August 31.  It is still warm most of the time with a cloudy/rainy day once in a while.  I'm enjoying the extra sun tremendously.  Things are getting easier for me in the office but I still have stamina issues.  Tim is acquiring and honing his real estate skills and we are up to 5 new flats!  This last week was zone conferences which is always a heavy week but it's fun to see all of our missionaries.  This sister decorated her Book of Mormon covers!  Very talented!

             

We try to go out every now and then just to air out and reset.  This weekend we rode the train to Roma Street Parkland.  It's a botanical garden with a cafe and lots of public areas for events.

All in all, we adjusting well and getting better at what we are doing--even navigating the city and trains!
