Nov 61

Dear Mum Dad and Alan, Adrienne's party went off very well with as much noise as you can imagine. The dog facinated them and was an obvious success which she concentrated on for some time before she even looked at the bike. Enclosed are my first attempts at colour transparencies which on even a very powerful automatic viewer that I borrowed came out very well. Hope you can borrow a viewer so that you can see them properly. 1) Orchid white at entrance to the house 2) House 3)4)5) Caroline Adrienne & Susan (Did not take E at the time because she was teething and would not smile. Well do some more soon) Series TUARAN SUNDAY MARKET Note: Sweets, tobacco, egg plant, bananas etc. Dusans & Malays & Chinese, dress, umbrellas sarongs. Look at bare feet and add big toes. Series River picnic at TAMPARULI Women in at side of river is washing clothes. Her son is there too. Picture with 3 children and Margo bending down - the long green bamboo is a water carrier and Margo is washing sand off the children's feet. As you can see we had a good picnic. The shot of Margo & Adrienne shows a lot of background and there are rubber trees in the distant hill. The background, right, of Susan sitting on milestone 16 rice. The pictures should enlarge to half the size of your drawing room wall if you can get back 12 to 15 feet and you can then move forward to within 3 feet to see the detail. I hope to do another 20 pictures over Christmas. Elisabeth can now sit on a rocking horse without holding and rock it herself! Love from us all Peter
