So with mum's tickets booked it was just a case of counting down the days until her visit. I had arranged for a wheel chair at both airports so she would not have to climb stairs. Virgin Blue staff were very helpful and looked after her. We were waiting in the arrivals area for her when she was wheeled out. So after a busy day she slept in till after 10.00AM the next day and on the Saturday I took mum to Ipswich so that she could see where Alister & Crystal live and meet Kiara Rose. So while mum had a play I mowed Alister's lawns and did the edges. He used the blower vac to clean the paths and drive ways so I know what to get him for his birthday now.

Smile for Grand dad.	OK - don't smile then.	Gai is waiting for mum to come through.	Finally she arrives being treated like royalty.
Cashew nuts I bought her and she took most of them home.	Michael & mum smiling.	Mum gets to hold her great grand daughter.	Don't squeeze her ears or she might cry.
Kiara says "Is that my dad ?".	Meet Jaws.	She loves to sleep on her grand dads shoulder.	Burp time.
Now sleepie time.	Nan pushes Kiara's face into the floor.	Stop pouting - the wind might change.	Nan - you're meant for the baby to sleep not you.

That's better. She's asleep now.

Claw the cat likes to sleep with the teddy.

Claw's asleep now. It must be catching.

Drink time.

What's with the funny face nan ?.

Nan gets lifted up to the plane.

Well - she reached the top.

She's was the first passenger on board.

The plane is pushed back.

Next stop is Adelaide Airport.
