Reunion

I just had the first reunion with my brother and three sisters since 2002. It was hilarious. We reminisced about life in Cape Town, although being the youngest, some the tales were a little before my time. We looked at my mother's old photo albums trying to piece things together and put names to the faces of people we knew in South Africa.

We started a drawing a family tree but it quickly became apparent the extended family (aunts and uncles, their children, etc) would be much too big to be done on paper. One surprise is that my youngest sister has contacted several family members on Facebook so she is slowly reconnecting with the family back in Cape Town.
