Wishing you a Happy New Year from Hamilton Beach.
May it be full of great adventures, many successes, lots of laughter, special moments with family and friends and fun surprises.
Let us endeavour to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly in all we do.

Happy 2012...
Christmas 2011 in Salone...
Christmas 2011.
Away from family but with friends. I was surprised with Christmas mail and presents from family and friends from all over the world. Thank you! Colleagues that went home for Christmas left gifts in my stocking. Tenki plenti! My friend and colleague Emily came to spend Christmas and New Years here, which has been fun. The morning was spent at Regent church where the children performed their Christmas play. They did an excellent job. We spent the afternoon with an English family - good conversation, playing with playmobil castles and dragons, watching the children open their gifts with delight, enjoying an amazing Christmas dinner (thanks Anne!), blowing out candles on the Happy Birthday Jesus cake. It was so nice to spend the afternoon with a family here. In the evening Emily and I went to Lumley beach and enjoyed the sunset. It was a good Christmas!
