Feeling a little homesick

And with a wave from her balcony from Buckingham Palace, Her Majesty, the Queen drew an epic four day Platinum Jubilee celebration to a close. It was a fantastic time to celebrate all things British. The buntings were out from Covent Garden… … to Chinatown! There were street parties, strawberries and cucumber sandwiches. And the […]

One fine ordinary day

Ordinary. My ideal day looks like any other ordinary day. Preferably a Saturday. Back in Australia it started with a sunrise walk by the beach with friends. They did it for exercise. I really did it for the amazing light, their company and the açai bowl waiting for me at the end. We talk and […]

Free Spirit

That beach I loved back home. It was only 30 minutes or so from our place in Sydney. I loved how it made me feel free. Via the Daily Post Photo Challenge #79: Free Spirit

Light

It’s been an emotional and busy few days. We have been packing, throwing things out and donating things to charity shops. We will move out of our apartment tomorrow. My husband will be headed to London before us. And we will follow him shortly after. It’s been so very sad to say goodbye to people, […]
