Australia!
We got these ornaments when we visited our son who lives in Australia. These ones came from our first visit there, when he was living in Sydney. We got to do all sorts of things – visit the Sydney Opera House (one of my favorite buildings in the world), pet a koala, see kangaroos up close, and learn about all the deadly animals and insects that inhabit the Australian continent – there are A LOT. We were stationed in UIjeongbu, South Korea, so Australia wasn’t nearly as far to visit as it is from the US. We made our first visit in 2011. Since then, we have been back several times (not enough) and become acquainted with our two lovely, lively grandsons who live there. I am posting them on the 30th because this year, our son and his family are coming HERE! Today! To San Antonio to spend some time with us and welcome in 2026. What a treat!! We know how l-o-n-g the flight is, and how expensive. We appreciate the effort and are looking forward to seeing these wonderful people who live so very far-away.
