Re: My ancestors had a dream of a better life and went to Australia
Yes, it really must have taken courage, especially in those days.

Dreams can and often do
become reality I think.

Indeed, dreams are wonderful tools.  You never know when they might just come true!...

What a fun post.  I love the picture, and the slide show on the video was really good.
I'd never thought about looking up videos in Esperanto.

I recognized the title of your blog today as New York, New York

Maybe it's because you wrote it twice and it has the rhythm of the song I know in English. How cool is that? 

Hmmm... maybe I could learn Esperanto after all...

choices of parents can make or break their children's (& grandchildren's)
future. This is why it is important not just to look at the big picture but also at the future picture. I think that if your grandparents could see where you are now they will know that the risk they took by moving to London years ago was worth it.
