Saturday morning at the Stoep, Saturday evening at the bar
The Binnington Clan very kindly invited us along to join them for a day at Mui Wo - we had a bit of a play in the ocean and then had a great early lunch at the Stoep Restaurant (a South African barbeque place). Here are a few photos of the day - firstly, the locals call a spade a spade. And a sick bag a Vomit Bag:
.
And a few of big Sam and little Eva:

...as well as one of Rachel and Bunky:

And tonight I went out to watch the rugby at a pub in Wan Chai, and took this on of my fellow rugby watchers (they had to go outside for their nicotine fix, thanks to the new anti-smoking laws):
A load of photos
Patrick and Barbara have now left for New Zealand (they'll be close to halfway by now), and so I have a bit of time to crank out a few photos from the past week with them. Firstly, one of Bunky from yesterday morning. You know, just looking cute and stuff. Note his two favourite toys by his side - a little yellow ball and a chewed up cardboard tube:
.
Moving right along - we took Rachel's employer's boat out for the day on Wednesday. We headed out to Clearwater Bay for a spot of lunch (on the boat) and a swim (which for Bunky also occurred on the boat thanks to an inflatable paddling pool):
That's windswept hair, not baby baldness...
Anyway, someone really enjoyed his own paddling pool. Note the furrowed brow:
.
Also note that he's inherited - from his mother - the ability to blink during the 1/200th of a second that the camera shutter is open:
.
And here's the little monkey being entertained by his Granny B. You may have noticed by now that someone seems to have developed a little tummy:
.
And then a few from the trip home:

For P&B's last night in Hong Kong, we went to a little outdoor Thai restaurant in Deepwater Bay that Rachel had been to a few times (once with Aunty Jane). It was pretty dark, but I clicked off a few photos anyway - one of Barbara, one of Patrick, and one of the table of ladies that was set up on the beach (we have to try that table next time). I had to take a stealthy photo of them, but I think I got sprung.
Bunky gets a new hat...
Out on the junk today, so he'll get to use it too:
Monday morning photos
Not much from yesterday - here's one from this morning, George playing with very special favourite cardboard tube:
.
And one from last night - Angelo was in town, so we headed out with the cameras and took some photos in town:
Monkey
Modelling the monkey beanie that Uncle Ash and Aunty Zoe gave him:
.
And a random photo taken from the corner of Pedder Street and Queens Road:
Somebody discovered toast with vegemite this morning
Ash and Zoe picked a great morning to be in Hong Kong
I suspect they've just touched down at HKIA, so we'll probably see them in an hour or so. It's stunning outside:
.
Here's a bit of Bunky from last night:
Bad hair day
.
And in other news, somebody's first tooth appears to be coming through his gum...
Hopefully his cheeks don't count as 'excess baggage' next time we fly
