I have had such a wonderful break and am now back to work. We had a beautifully relaxing family holiday on Norfolk Island swimming, 
fishing,
(this is how they lower the fishing boats into the ocean as there are no ports due to the terrain)
eating
and catching up with dear friends who live the lifestyle everyday.
It is such a small world we made new friends by a chance meeting in a car park when I asked if I could take a photo of their cute vintage car. They happily allowed me to sit inside to take a photo. We were just talking about where we came from (it’s a small island and everyone knows when you’re not a local) and they mentioned that they had a place north of Sydney and it turns out they are neighbours and friends of old friends of ours. As I said small world and we now have new friends. They are such kind people and invited us over to see their home and the other vintage vehicles they own. The cars are so cute and I love them.
The view from our cottage.
More photos of the landscape.
The island is so beautiful and our friends have Garnets nesting along the cliff edge of their home. We quietly watched as they guarded their babies; it was magical.
Harrison celebrated his birthday while we were there and the restaurant made him a cake. Such a good night with family and friends.
It was hard to leave. Dad looks so pensive at the airport to go home, wishing he had more time to do more fishing.
As I mentioned it is back to work and I have a new bag ready for my website ; I’ve called this design Charlotte.
I will make it with the trim in any of these colours
