This morning I am thinking about my son Dan. He is far away in Australia and in an hour or so I will fly to Madrid. This picture was taken in our favourite restaurant in Barcelona. Goodness, how cosmopolitan are we, we have a favourite restaurant in another country. But Madrid is a new idea, and I will be in a hotel just round the corner from the Santiago Bernabéu and he is a Camp Nou man. But aye well, he is in Australia, heading for hippiedom and Byron Bay so he can't complain. But one day we could watch Real versus Barca at the Bernabéu so I can just say I am checking it out. I love to travel, in fact we both love to travel and hopefully we will do more of it through our lives, especially together. Now I wonder if he will visit any art galleries in Australia or if he just indulges me... hmm. Drat, I forgot to tell him to look out for Archie Roach - note to self, email him - oh, took the children away, heartbreaking - how could anyone bear it:
