Return of the Boston MacKenzies

December 1st, 2006

My uncle Bill and his family are based in Boston, and usually make it over to Edinburgh in August, tieing in with Granny Flora’s, Mum’s and cousin Julia’s birthdays. 

This year, they came over in May instead, and we all met up for a meal together.  The kids (and big kids) headed up to the park in Juniper Green afterwards to work off the food. 

Both Dan and I gained cousins when we were in our twenties.  We don’t all get to meet very much, but we enjoy ourselves when we do.  Max and Julia may be growing up in the States, but are well aware of their UK heritage too, and it’s nice to support their interests.  Max was working on a school project to do with cars, and was busy taking photos of cars available in the UK but not in the US. Dan was of course pleased to help with car know-how - and a few drawings.
