Dave & Penny briefly in Sydney

Some of you have wondered

(a) how come we were flying ABOVE Pastime and

(b) how we got to post photos to our website when all we have is a slow radio link.

The answer is that we flew back to Sydney for 36hrs to be with our daughter Tess for her University Graduation ceremony where she received her Bachelor of Business degree including making the Dean's list and receiving the Dean's Medal for being in the top 2% of students in the Faculty over the past three years. Go Tess!

Tess: Thanks M&D! It was so nice to have Mum and Dad come home for the ceremony. I'm very happy - althought it would have been nice if the uni took the time out to tell me! Basically, UWS awards the Dean's Medal to students who are in the top 2% of the completing College students for the calendar year (the ranking is for everyone's grade point average over the course of the entire degree). So I was competing against everyone in the College of Law and Business who finished their degree in 2005. :) (05/02/06)
