Hey Memom
I am so sorry to hear about your friend and everyone's troubles at the moment. I am thinking of you all and our prayers go out to you all for all your friends and family members going through bad times.
Please also everyone keep safe, we get the pictures on the news here of all your hurricanes and things - it looks very frightening - so I hope you all keep safe and well.
On a happier note - I went last week to see Mary Poppins - the show from Broadway. It was the most magical show I've seen in a long time. The special effects of how she flew over our heads and Bert walking up the walls and dancing on the roof was just brilliant. The singing was fantastic - we had the lead lady from the show that just finished in Los Angeles and she was wonderful, but my favourite was Bert - he was so cool.
We dont get many of the big shows out here as its very expensive to bring them here apparently, I normally have to fly to Australia to see the big ones, but every now and then we get them here. So it was very exciting. We had to fly to the show as it was in a different part of the country and even the air hostesses got into the spirit when they found out where I was going - they kept walking past and breaking into song - supercalifragilistic and step in time. They were great. So it was a real adventure and well worth the day off work and the cost.
Loving your pictures and even just the chat posts are cool as its nice to just read whats happening in your lives (sorry sounds rather stalkerish

)
The new bits look so cool and fun - can dream of getting back there one day, but living them through you all is great.
Take care
