We drenteled (Dutch word) around Cairns airport like parents nervously
awaiting the arrival of their first-born. Wait a minute! We were expecting the
arrival of our first-born, but she is 32 now and quite capable of making her
own way in the world. It was early Sunday morning, and Renske had been flying
most of the night.

| Here is Renske! Bright and bushy-tailed at 8 a.m. after an overnighter from Perth! |
 |
| Setting up the supposedly leak-proof tent which we had grabbed from the attic unchecked back in Launceston. Needless to say we dumped it after one night. Sorry - whoever it belonged to!! |
Claire Byl had reminded us that the Cairns church would meet
at 2:30 p.m. This gave Renske time to sit back and catch her breath.
Then we went to another service in the Cairns
church, followed by coffee and discussions as before. There were new people to
meet and we were beginning to feel quite comfortable as we spent our third
Sunday with the Cairns Group.
