I do hope you are well whilst I've been gone on holiday. So lovely to be back home but was great to have a holiday away from home in the south of the Island of Tasmania, Australia. In a few weeks time we will be off again all being well.
We as in my husband and myself left in the caravan Christmas week returning Saturday January 9, 2021. Our eldest son his wife and their two little ones came just after Christmas and came home same day as we did. Youngest son stayed home and had his children come to stay for Christmas in our house.
Extremely lucky on this Island as there is no Covid-19 and hasn't been for awhile now but we all know not to take things for granted, so always distance and so on.
On the way to Huonville down south we went through Campbell Town in the Midlands of Tasmania and of course it was rest time so out came the camera for some photos. These sculptures depict the history of Tasmania. A post of Campbell Town not long before we left is [ here ]
Me alegra verte bien. Bonitas las fotografías. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThanks Teresa.
DeleteWelcome home! Stunning sculptures; thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteBeautiful woodcarving, especially that first one. Glad you had a nice Christmas with family.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cynthia - hope you had a lovely Christmas too.
DeleteYo no he salido de vacaciones, pero me he tomado un descanso en el blog. Tenía que dedicarme a la familia y a preparar la Navidad.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Understand. Family things have to be done first :)
DeleteNice collection of sculptures.
ReplyDeleteThanks John, there were more, but I thought they may become a bit boring :)
DeleteGood to have you back and that you enjoyed yourself. The wood carvings really are very good and I know they are passing traffic stoppers.
ReplyDeleteSo many people stop there to take photos of the carvings, it's a good thing.
DeleteOnce there were great big old dangerous trees there, lots of shade as we stopped there a few times on real hot days to cool down and also eat lunch as there were picnic tables there too..
Home, is such a sweet place, travelling is fun but home is sweet
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Jo-Anne.
DeleteWelcome back home, Margaret, and a belated Happy New Year to you as well. It's nice that you and family members could spend time together and even better news that there is no virus on your island. Hope it stays that way this year as well. The wood carvings were quite spectacular and I wondered how long they have been in the elements and still look so good.
ReplyDeleteThank you Beatrice.
DeleteFeel for so many that couldn't spend Christmas or New Year together and we are so lucky here in Tasmania in so many ways - at times :)
Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your next trip?!!
A second state of emergency has been declared today for at least 28 days. : (
Your posts and pictures will distract me, I'm sure! : )
Hopefully my photos will help - we can only try at this trying time that grips this world.
DeleteMe alegro de verte de nuevo en accion, con estas bellas imagenes
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteI am happy that you are learning more and more about your native state.
ReplyDeleteWe are indeed David and we were not that far from Bruny Island :)

Hi Margaret, welcome back. Glad you had a wonderful holiday. We started 2021 with a month long lockdown so we can't go anywhere, have to be patient, :)

Thanks Bill, it's nice to be back.
DeleteOh gosh, that's not too good then being in lock down again - hope all goes well. Yes, patients is a virtue.
