Whirlybird time!

Getting ready to take off

Over the North Sound

This is where the reef drops off... see the different colors of the water that show the different depths.  Picture does not do it justice. 

In the middle to the left is the Kittiwake - a shipwreck that was sunk in a marine park

Looking towards Georgetown

Back on the ground!

Santa so kindly brought Richard a helicopter ride for Christmas.  We did that on Boxing Day and it was amazing.  It was a beautiful sunny day and I'm so pleased that Richard enjoyed himself! 

Christmas fun!

Heading out for a boozy brunch!

The girls on Christmas morning

Christmas morning brunch

Richard and I have been having some good fun over the Christmas break!  We did a pre-Christmas brunch at Luca followed by fun at Royal Palms.  I may have had a bit of a headache the next day...  then on Christmas morning we did the Westin brunch.  It was a lovely way to celebrate Christmas with some very special friends!  We also did a big "family" dinner with loads of friends on Christmas as well...  felt just like home with about 24 adults and kids to go with the adults!  Lots of chaos, noise and laughter - just the way Christmas should be!

We've also enjoyed some good fun nights with friends, playing games, but since Boxing Day the vast majority of our conversations have revolved around wedding planning.  We may as well take advantage of the time without AK to get stuff done!  I think we are pretty close to having a venue sorted out...  yahoo!
