Blanche’s parents invited us to their place down in Mount Eliza on Easter Sunday.  They have a beautiful home which Alan has dubbed ‘Casa Manuell’.  Ella and Charlie both had lots of fun in the pool with Lily (Blanche’s sister).   We hoped that exposure to their dog, Roxy, would  help Ella overcome her fear but to no avail.

Naturally lots of chocolate was consumed…….it was Easter after all!!

Ella all set for the car journey

And Charlie too…..

Charlie took a naked dip in the pool

Then wrapped up warm with mummy
