Back to reality!!!
So reality strikes back and here I sit in minus degree temps looking at pictures of beaches, family, and sunsets .................. quite depressing really!! This is the 'southernmost Robinson/Scholten USA Clan' on our visit down to Key West. Wonderful trip making new memeories:-) just wish these things didn't have to end! Now back on to unpacking and settling in the new house along with the 'finishing touches'!!! that need doing (should be finished entirely just before Tyler graduates is my bet!) Love to one and all great to see all of the pics on here and catch up with the wanderings of us all - Wishing you all a very happy and healthy 2012 - hope we get to see you all soon - Love H J TJ and M x

Oceans Three
To complete the Robinson Family's touring of the three major oceans of the world; here is the Pacific report. It's good to hear that everyone had a good time and we did our best to keep up the family average too. A great resort on the Pacific beachside in El Salvador (see sunset above); all of us summited the country's highest active volcano, Santa Ana (see family pic on the way up and the panoramic video on the summit); we explored one of the great Maya cities - Copan in Honduras (Pip and Anneli on the Royal Staircase) and Maya sites in El Salvador; toured Guatemala's cowboy country; pottered along the Route of Flowers, full of colonial towns, markets, coffee plantations and of course flowers; relaxed in hot springs; and celebrated the start of the year that ends the Maya calendar amidst fireworks and champagne too!
Here's to a happy, healthy and fun new year for all the family.
Love, Chip, Dara, Tim, Pip & Anneli

Love to you all,

A Real Grown-Up Little Boy

I'm all grown-up (not really) and moved into my first Big-City apartment! I'm in an old packaging factory that has been converted to residential units so it has lovely hardwood floors and exposed brick. I'm living with a good buddy from Uni and Anneli comes back from school to visit on weekends. It's really big considering what we pay and that its right down town but I think we're benefiting from the fact we're on the top floor, there's no elevator, dishwasher, and it's next to a naughty leather store!
I'm very much enjoying my new found job and independence but I must confess I'm writing this from Mum and Dad's, full of yummy pot-roast and I definitely miss the legendary Singapore Slinger's hospitality and the beach-bum life!
