Visions of Jo(hanna)

The title of this post refers to a famous song by Bob Dylan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visions_of_Johanna) but more appropriately now to Jo, who has finally got her appointment for her cataract operation - it's Wednesday 23rd January at ARI. She's looking forward to being able to drive again.

We've been remiss in talking to Lucy and Kelly since the New Year - must make amends soon. Jo and I were out yesterday (Sunday) when we took a trip down to Crieff to meet up with Barry and Helen, who are having a 3 night break there. We had a long mid-afternoon meal with them (which, for the record, Barry paid for - we'll get the next one) in the Brasserie there, and we took a quick team photo just as we were leaving:


I was wearing a bulky body-warmer - that's not all me - honest! I know it's been a gluttonous holiday period, but I didn't put on as much weight as this photo implies.

So, just 6 weeks today till we set off on our round the world adventure. I've been able to print our boarding passes and luggage labels this morning for our cruise down the east coast of New Zealand, but we've yet to decide which restaurants we're going to eat in each night and which organised excursions we want to join. The vessel we'll be on is the Majestic Princess and the web site shows this view of roughly what our cabin should look like:


Schools are back so it's back to the old routine for us this week - Inverurie tomorrow.
