Having a bit of fun in the snow.
Yes folks, having Mark here certainly gave us an excuse to rediscover our city. Jeanne organised a bus-load of people to visit Jindabyne in August, our Winter Wonderland. Of course, our aim is to let Mark experience some time in the snow, especially so because he visited Australia in winter. We also travelled to Melbourne to attend the first birthday of Celine and Jessica’s favourite baby cousin – Potpot.
After those trips, Mark had to content himself travelling by train around town. We enrolled him in a gym where he met friends. This is perhaps his best influence on us, for after he left for home, Jeanne and I continued going to the gym and we are healthier and more active as ever. Fortunately, watching Jerry Springer and the World Federation Wrestling did not rub off. Every so often though, Jeanne gets this craving to have coffee at Starbucks – another habit that Mark left us.
