Guest Post: Mum of C & D


Bells doesn't write too often for this blog, but an email she sent out about our ferry ride to Bilbao deserved a re-print.

Just a
quick note to share the journey with you. It started even worse than expected. At 10 am, the vomitorium score was:
Bella 0
Adam 1
Christian 7
Dorothy 9
Needless to say, while I had packed spare clothes, I had not anticipated
the share scale of need! By 11 am, everyone got their sea legs and were fine for the rest of the day. And we've arrived ... stinking and smelly. But there's
a washing machine.
Anyway, see most of you in a month.

And here are some snaps: Just driving on to the biggest ship
I've ever been on and post- vomitorium below.

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.

And also inherits Bella's middle name. Any advice on coping with daughters is heartily welcomed by the father.
