# Last

Day # Last...Friday 10:57 PM and gangnam style is playing loud enough to hear up in our room. We just finished playing mafia, and as part of the mafia I am pleased to say we won. We just came from our last presentation evening where we glimpsed into the life of the our family down under. Before that we ate supper while being serenaded by a local band. Before that we had a badminton tournament to be called because of lack of light. Before that a whole day of sun, rest, swim and more sun. Before that we said good by to the first leaving...

 Before that we heard that Margaret had passed into the prince of Jesus. It is hard to measure it all. 

Today is our last here and we are already feeling the loss of what was. It took all of us from 8 hours to 24 hours just to fly here and that doesn't count the layovers, taxi ride and ferries. We are in the middle of wonderful and everything worked in our favor; the location, the weather, the isolation, the history , the food, the mix of family , the beauty.

 We start moving out tomorrow. Some a bit farther on together, others all the way back to where they began. It's time to get home though there are some things I haven't missed. I've learned some things about us that makes me, me. It has been such a bonus to be with Daniel and Lois. I've danced with a two year old and had amazing conversations with many. I've so loved to watch the excellence of strengths and the gifts are spouses have been to our family. I'm pretty sure that this group of folks have something special and what we create by our being together is worth the distance, money and time.
