No better way to welcome my folks in town than to throw them a party... and a SambaLocos drumming party no less !
My flatmate Ange had a ball too.
Watching Geoff closely for his next signal.
Deep baselines from Elsabeth !
Sara, Ange's workmate, also jumped in on the action.
All was worth the practice for the next day's big jam at Tour de Dance 9 at the Factory Theatre.
Brazilian dance queens were always a big hit at Tour de Dance.
Another shot of the ladies and us.
Here I am with my new baby, my massive west african Djembe which has a resonance that tickles my bellybutton.
For his birthday, I took Dad to the Red Baron for a g-forces and loop de loop aerobatic flight.
Here are the three of us on that lovely sunny day - what a great day for a flight !
The bi-plane itself in all of its glory, perfectly simetrical so that it could fly upside down just as easily.
Another angle of the plane.
Dad with his red baron cap on.
Getting ready to take off.
And just landed full of glee. (too far to take shots during the show, couldn't even see him).
The pilot hand shake... this looks very political.
Dad's smiling ear to ear now.
And mudder and I for a nice portrait on the bondi to bronte walk.
