Ze Swiss-German side of things

After a merry Swiss National Day on 1st August, it was time for me to head to the land of my forefathers.

The trip was a walk in the park: giggle, sleep, giggle.

I now understand what dad was on about. That landscape... those Singapore girls...

After a trip that would just not end, I met my grandparents and Uncle Reli. Awesome.

We soon went off to a proper tour of friends and family.


Daniel 'The Godfather' was a joy to meet.



But my award goes to s'Grossmami and s'Grosspapi. Endless patience, continuous discovery. Love'em.

Goodbye Auckland

As you guessed, things have been fairly busy lately. What with the move to Sydney and so on.

In their usual 'let's play it by ear' fashion, my parents decided early July they'd ship our stuff across the Tasman by the end of July. Yeah right, as I knew all along, that proved to be easier said than done.

As is so often the case, it was lots of work for mum while dad was dandying overseas. We got help from serious chaps who did most of the packing...

...and dad was his usual helpful self.

We did manage to fill a container.

At which point my earthly possessions were fairly basic. I was pretty much down to my stroller.

We ended up in a hotel for a couple of nights. Time for me to kick back and do what boys do best.

WHERE'S THAT MILK?

Idol

Mum wanted to be a rock idol in the 80s. I am devastated.

Kitted up for action

Friend -

Good to see you here again.

It's official. I am a citizen of Aotearoa, according to Wikipedia 'an island country in the south-western Pacific Ocean known as the Land of the Long White Cloud'. And I have the documents to prove it.

I'm not too sure how I feel about this, but so be it.



I'm living the Kiwi life. I wake up with my chums...

... endure the changing ritual with attitute ...

... then move over to the living room ...

... and chat with friends on Skype (in this case, granny and pop)


Chill out


...and - most importantly - stick it to the Spaniards.

See you soon for more adventures.
