I don't get why... (Spoilers)

Hey there, people! A truly awesome story showing how humans should always be friends with animals. That said, I didn't get a point in the movie. The second time James visits his dad at his home, he says the first time we went there was because he was going to leave for Australia. Did I miss something or did he never make mention of that early in the movie? Wasn't the purpose of the visit just a casual New Years Eve dinner? Also, whose picture did his dad give to James in the second meeting? Thanks for the replies beforehand. Awesome movie and I gave it a 10.

I believe James moved to Australia with his mum and he was talking to his dad about it as his dad had said at the time he couldn't go because he was scared of flying.. but he admitted he wasn't scared of flying, he just didn't feel able to be a dad. The photo was of James when he was a little boy and he showed it to him to show that he had always had him in his thoughts, even though he had been a terrible father.
