Family

Claire and Oliver arrived today from the U.S.  They will be with us for the next three weeks.  Having our family be apart for so long has not been easy, even with Skype.  It will be even harder when they go back.

Claire, Molly, and O at the Dunedin train station.


When we told you, our friends and family in the U.S., Canada, and Great Britian, what we were doing you offered us your enthusiastic encouragement.  The friends and colleagues we have made in New Zealand have made us feel incredibly welcome.  Many of you have given a great deal of support to us, either in Bloomington or in Dunedin.  We could not possibly thank you enough.

So, with the family back together again, here it is one more time: THANK YOU!
