Uncle Nate and Krispy Kremes!

Uncle Nate passed through Heathrow today on his way from Kabul to the US for some badly needed R&R. He had a few hours around breakfast, so C and I raised early to meet him.

It was really special. We got up at 5:30am, showered (C has just discovered the joy of a hot shower), and hopped on the tube. Having breakfast with Nate was a dream. American doughnuts for the first time- Krispy Kreme no less- and hot coffee.

And we made it back for C to be at school only 15 minutes late.

See here for a very similar shot when Nate arrived a few years back...

We walked three miles along the beach and through the woods to reach this place.   Once there, we devoured barnacles, goat, fish, steak and razor clams. Washed down with coke, beer and regional white wine. And then grandma's chocolate cake, cheese and honey and coffees for the walk back.

She arrives!

Dorothy Wijnanda Park has finally arrived. A healthy, petite (6lb, 7 oz) baby was born at 1:18 pm today, 28th of June. Baby and mother are both recovering from the delivery at Kingston Hospital in fine form. The first Park female on this branch of the family in 5 generations gets her name from my grandmother (Dorothy M. Baetcke Park) and a relative on Bella's side (Isabella Dorothea Akers). And also inherits Bella's middle name. Any advice on coping with daughters is heartily welcomed by the father.
