Baseball, fishin' and pizza

Here is a selection of photos from July 1999.  Phil, Maria, Thomas and Charlotte came to visit - and we have pictures yet to come from New York!

On July 4th we went to a funfair, banger racing and fireworks display.   Against her better judgement, I made Jaine sit on an elephant.
