Anna Loves The Lens!

Category: Anna's Photos — ChrisM @ 4:11 pm

OK, make that three posts, not four. These shots were taken in John’s studio just a little while before we left to travel back to Kazakhstan. I’ve included quite a few here as it took me a long time to whittle down the selection to this many! Oh, 26th of March was the exact date, included in this post, as I want to update Anna’s blog sometime and have the imported posts use the actual date of the photos, not when Anna’s lazy busy Daddy managed to upload and publish them. Our huge thanks to John for taking all the photos he did, and also to Anna for behaving well and sitting still long enough to actually take them.

Dummy, Bunny, Blanket

Three days after the chocolate mousse was the 23rd of March, and John kindly looked after Anna one morning giving Irina and I a chance for a lie in. It looks as though Anna wanted to be up and around people, but hadn’t quite yet woken up fully. I’m surprised Gwen wasn’t in shot, though she may also have been taking a lie in!

She Did Eat Some Of It!

Category: Anna's Photos — ChrisM @ 3:48 pm

The 20th of March 2010 saw Anna enjoying a chocolate dessert in Clydach with somewhat predictable results!
Four more posts will see us reach Anna’s photos where she is back in Kazakhstan, and I’m set the somewhat arbitrary deadline of publishing them before Mum gets here to Astana, early Sunday morning. I also have quite a few Kazakhstan based posts to write, but I’ll catch up with Anna’s UK photos first.

Just shot this clip (#qik) http://qik.ly/Cdk8m
This was shot a few weeks ago when we were at Vaqueros but I seem to have forgotten to stream via Qik at the time. As I’m going to the tennis tomorrow, I wanted to have the backlog cleared from my phone’s cache.

Double Trouble

Category: Anna's Photos,Friends — ChrisM @ 12:12 am

The 16th of March saw us leaving Evesham, but we managed to catch up with Irina on the way back to Swansea. (IrinaG to be more specific. My Irina met IrinaG in Cheltenham, I think at her office. The spooky thing is that IrinaG also comes from Kazakhstan. The fact two ladies called Irina randomly meet in an office is probably reasonably rare, but then to add Kazakhstan as a common factor must make it reasonably rare!)
We met up at a pub that I’ve forgotten the name of (either Irina, can you help out here?), and Anna behaved herself very well whilst we munched through a delicious lunch. Cheltenham’s big race week was starting that day, and I’m glad we lived in Cheltenham for so long, as we managed to use a few country lanes to avoid the traffic that was beginning to pour into the area!

Comparing Walkers

Category: Anna's Photos — ChrisM @ 9:51 pm

This is (almost) it! Four more photo based posts and this site will be up to date with pictures taken during our last trip to the UK! All the videos have been published already, and if you check out this site’s YouTube channel, you’ll see I’ve already uploaded the last 4.5 months worth of videos recorded in Kazakhstan. This means there are now 538 videos there! I will try and increase the amount of posts written per week until we get close to real time publishing again. I still need to go through and title most of the recent videos, and select which photos to use and then process them.
Anyway, these photos were shot on the same day (15th of March 2010) as the A Promenade Around Cheltenham Promenade post. Since March, she is now happy (sometimes too eager and wants to go solo) climbing stairs, and can almost manage all of the four floors up to our flat!
