That earthquake in Japan and then the tsunami have been keeping us on alert – what power, to send those shockwaves so far across the Pacific to California! Once again, so many lives lost.

SARA – Thanks for asking but as Bee said, we are not due to leave until Thursday, when we’ll know more about everything in that area.

MARION - I was sure Hong Kong would get a mention, being so close to Japan, but perhaps because of the Asian shoreline it will be safe, and Singapore too? Shannon & Sarah were in Singapore and waiting for the flight to HK, which they wouldn’t have boarded if anything was going to happen. Have you heard from your DD and DSIL? Thank goodness the Caribbean islands are on the other side of the Nth American continent, or you would be worrying about your sister also.

I hope your friends are feeling a bit better and that their house is habitable for them, although it sounds scary having all those cracks opening up.

BEE – I hope DGD hears from her friend in Japan soon.

DORIS – Sorry to hear about your dear friend’s passing. I’m glad for her that her DD arrived in time and that she had you to help her in passing on her wishes. Thank you for your very timely ‘announcement’. I need to let our sons know where our wills and other papers are kept – that had slipped my mind.

GRACE – Good to hear that your knee has done so well. Good luck with the other one when the time comes. Keep warm!

Packed our bags yesterday: one case for hot weather, the other for everything else. We go from Singapore to tropical Sri Lanka for 5 days and then to England, where DH’s uncle tells us it is due to snow again in some parts. I hope I’m prepared enough for this white stuff!

Hugs to all,

Fran
