Beautiful jacaranda hanging over our balcony The last few weeks have been pretty action packed in the dB household. The weather has certainly been hotting up as we make our way through the spring.

Another gorgeous day at the beach! We arrive back at the apartment sandy, soggy, exhausted but happy – everything is going so well.
