Doing well in Brisbane

So we've now been settled in Brisbane for about a month. We've developed a routine that seems to work well overall. Robyn , Kayla and I are all doing well.

I've been bike riding to work practically every day now. While I'm still not a huge bike riding fan, I'm at least a decent rider. So I'm not danger to people around him. I could not make that claim a month ago. The workout in the morning is also nice. While it's only 20 minutes each way, it makes me want to take the stairs more. Also now that I'm being a bit more conscious of my health, I've drastically reduced my drinking of Coke to only  about a can a day.

Operating here in Australia has been great. I've done quite a few complicated surgeries, with great results, as well as walked a few residents through other cases. I enjoy the balance of teaching and operating that I have achieved here. I hope to continue that once I am settled back home in Richmond, VA

Robyn has developed some nice friends here and has regular hang out times with many of them. Most of her week now has regular standing get-together times. She's busy now planning Passover at our place and figuring out where in Sydney we're going to go with my family.

Kayla is learning things at an amazing rate. She is super-mobile crawling and climbing everywhere. She still has a great smile with only 2 bottom teeth, but we think she's teething. So we'll see some more soon.

My family is coming over for Passover and we are really psyched to see them. It's been way too long since we've been together.

Well that's it for now,
Speak to you soon,
David
