Lan became an Australian citizen, 24 September, 1984. Here she is after the ceremony with the Mayor of Ashfield.

As you probably know, the ability to wrestle crocodiles is an essential requirement of Australian citizenship. Here she is giving a demonstration in Thailand in 1991 after we had visited Vietnam.

Lan bought a soft toy for a neice and discovered it made quite a dandy necklace. This photo was taken in the back garden of Lan's townhouse after we were married.

Lan is a keen gardener but in our townhouse at Auburn in Sydney, most of the back garden was concrete so her plants were mainly in pots. Here is an iris she grew.
