uptodate-goodness me!

yesterday-saturday we went into the tate modern (where my brother lives) where the thames 10th anniversary festival was on. my sister holly and her husband jeff do outrigger paddling and yesterday they did their first race ever. they have been training for a while now so it was a pretty big deal for them. we took the kids in to watch them race and also did a 5km charity walk around all the bridges and paths along the thames. below is a hazy picture of all the boats paddling past london bridge.

afterwards my brother took us to what we would call 'lachie heaven' a bar called rake that had so many beers lachie almost died of excitement. this turned into a full blown beer tasting session and plans for future trips to belgium to try the best beers in the world. sighh it never ends.
today we just did normal things like take the dog and kids to the park and hang out. the weather this weekend has been beautiful! warm and sunny.
