We went to Mareeba and Charley gave Varsha another treatment for her kinked back. We had a picnic in the park and went to the library. Laxmi zoomed through her book before we got home.
We have been doing music practice. John pulled apart the piano accordion trying to fix the sticky keys.
We went to swing dancing. Luka and Zeph were there. It was lots of fun. We had bubble tea at the night market before we drove home.
John made doughnuts.

Pam Sorooshian writes so eloquently
Varsha has finished painting her room.
Varsha went to swing dancing looking very smart again last week. Thiango took a nice Polaroid of her outfit. This week she got a cold and stayed home.
Laxmi has been making funny movies.
Varsha and I went to the Port Douglas carnivale parade on our way to the airport to pick up John. We saw the Sassy Cats in the parade. One of the circus teachers is in Sassy Cats. We really enjoyed watching a busker doing contact juggling and other clever tricks.
Laxmi had her first archery class last week. She really loved it. This week she has a cold and had to miss out. She was very disappointed.
We had circus for the first time in a while. They did lots of silks.
We had a dentist appointment and X-rays to see about Varsha getting braces.
They are building a new house across the road. The frame went up so quickly. It looks like a drawing.
Varsha made a little pathway through the grass to the dam. It was nice to have a sunny day and go outside after some grey and wintry days. It’s started to get cold at night.
We had a stall at the markets. Laxmi made a house in a tree in the park where the markets are and Varsha did the kids craft activity with her friends.
Laxmi has been doing more cooking. We have been researching all kinds of things like blue diamonds and how to say toast in Japanese.
Varsha continues to draw a lot. She’s really enjoying her new desk, lamp and shelves setup. She has been experimenting with pictures that can be seen through the paper.
Music classes are a lot of fun and the teachers are really happy with the band’s progress.
Varsha has been sorting and repairing and repainting her monster high dolls. She made a box to put all the sorted shoes and clothes into. Then she painted it inspired by Del Kathryn Barton’s paintings.
