One of those years, where updating anything just feels like extra work. However, recently Jess has been reading all my past blog posts and her friends have followed suit and I realised that it is important to keep updating, else we do forget!
So here is 2016 in a photo nutshell
January
We spent New Years with friends here in Doha . . .
Jess went on her first overseas trip with her class to Sharjan, UAE. She had the best time ever.
I went on a Trip to Sharjan UAE as well but with the Year 6’s from Compass International School – these are some of the activities I did while I was there.
Tennis in Doha, never a boring moment

Summer Holiday
Our amazing trip to the UK – London, Cornwall, Brighton and Dover
Meeting up with old friends and family – Kelly McManus, Scott and Silvia; Aretti, Paul and James; Alison and Sian Williams and of course Amelia 🙂
Visiting amazing places, from all the sites in London – Lords Cricket Grounds, London Eye, Maddame Tussauds, Buckingham Palace, Harrods, Central London, Natural History, Science and Victoria and Albert Museums, Anniversary Games at Millennium Stadium where we also went on the longest slide :), Cycled through East London, saw Wicked at the Apollo Theatre, visited and cycled through Oxford, and stayed near Hampton Court. We traveled through to see Kelly, Scott and Silvia and Aretti, Paul and James, all who live just outside of London.
We then travelled to Cornwall staying close to Crackington Haven, we met up with Shirley and Adrian and spent a lovely time exploring the area with them, from Tintagel to the Eden Project. Loved seeing my family and spending my birthday with my Sis 🙂
We then went on Brighton where we spent a lovely time with Alison, Sian and the boys and experienced the Pride Parade, staying right on the beach front area. Jess spent her birthday in her favourite city, where she wants to live one day…
Finally traveling through to Dover, where Sean spent a night with a friend in Hastings.
We said a sad goodbye after a three week adventure.
