Hello Peter,

You had all your kids and grandkids around you!!! That sounds like a great birthday!!

I’m doing fine! I’m still working as a physiotherapist at the Rudolfinerhaus Privat hospital! But in 3 weeks I will be in maternity protection. Yes, I’m pregnant!!! Supposedly it’s going to be a girl and due date is the 28^thof September. So at the moment it’s a really exciting and busy time!! We are rebuilding our sports room which is going to be a children’s room in the near future.

Erich is still working for Baxter in Vienna and he is really looking forward to be a dad!!!  Right now he is repainting our cot. We got it from my uncle and I think our girl is going to be third generation sleeping in this bed. So maybe you can imagine that it needs a bit of a redesign.

So far everything is fine. Last November Erich and I did a bag-pack-trip through Vietnam and Cambodia. We flew to Hanoi and worked our way through to the south of Vietnam (Saigon and Mekong-Delta) before we crossed the border to Cambodia. There we visited Phnom Penh – Battambang – Siem Reap (where we spend a whole day at Angkor Wat) before we crossed the border again to Thailand (Bangkok). There we relaxed for two more days before we had to fly back to Vienna. It was great and we had a fantastic time. This was probably our last trip alone for a long time. (You find attached some photos.)

In October a school friend of mine from Tintern is doing a trip through Europe and will spend some time in Vienna. I’m really looking forward to see her again after 10years!!! I think that it’s great that I’m still in contact with you and some other Australien-friends! So thank you and the Rotary Club of Nunawading one more time for taking me as an exchange-student!!!

Kind regards to you, your whole family and the Rotary Club of Nunawadig!

Lot’s of Love,

Conny
