Farewell Binghams....

After 5 memorable weeks the Binghams have returned to their home in Georgia. It's been great having them here and getting to know their kids better (and Chris).
We all had allot of fun together and the kids are already missing their cousins and their American accents.
This past week they returned to Launceston on Wednesday and we had the bike centre booked for a BBQ tea and play with family and friends. Thursday Penny took mum and myself out to lunch at Stillwater Cafe. It was really nice to just spend some quiet time together as often when we do see each other there is always kids involved. Then after we rescued Jason and Chris from a house full of kids we spent the afternoon at the Aquatic Centre.
Friday morning Jason and I took them to the airport at 5:30am. When we arrived home I walked into the house only to discover they had left a suitcase behind. Jason quickly threw it in the car and headed to the airport while I made phone calls. Jason got to the airport about 10 minutes before it was due to leave, and at first the airline wasn't going to put it on, but after some discussion they did and I believe it is safely back with them in Georgia....
