Stansbury

 The Family was packed up into the car for a 3 day trip to Stansbury on the Yorkes Peninsula.

 The Boys have their Annual Father Son Fishing Holiday here each year. And last year came home with a great haul of 12 Blue swimmer crabs and some squid.

 Im not sure if the Girls being on the trip caused the bad luck with the fishing, but we only caught 1 blue swimmer crab. Thats if for the whole 3 days.
Poor Master J, he will sit out there for hours in the freezing blustering wind.
The girls much prefered the playground.

 Stansbury is a pretty quiet place.
NOTHING to do, suits me just fine.
Great Pub for dinner.
Few to many of these!

Summer Holidays

A few photos of our holiday along the East coast of Australia. Bondi Beach, Coffs Harbour and Byron Bay.

A little Bali snippet

My Mate and I had a fantastic trip to Bali.
All over too quickly really.
Come on in to our Villa.

Perhaps you would like a dip in our pool?

Or then again you may enjoy a cocktail or 2 with us at Kudeta?

Im off...

My best Mate and I are jetsetting off to Bali in the morning.
Taking a week to ourselves!!!
Cant wait.

Ill be sure to tell you all about it when I get Home.
We are not taking a laptop with us....will I survive????


YEP, Ill be too busy reading, eating, sleeping, shopping and relaxing by the pool!!

Good bye winter....

Travel wallet

I made this travel wallet using a tutorial from The Cottage Home. And it has worked out perfectly. Just right to hold my passport and boarding pass on the plane. Ill use the note pad to write down the prices of thing I have bought, because the bartering can be fierce in Bali.

So many friends have given me great contacts and info for our trip.

We have been there before in 1997, we are expecting huge changes to the quality of shopping and eating there.

Im really just looking forward to lying on the daybed next to our private pool for hours on end!!!

My gorgeous friend Kerry gave me a new magazine and novel to take with me. Cant wait to get started on both.

Starting to pack, feels wierd getting the shorts and dresses out, when its so cold here.

Hope that volcanic ash is out of the way before Sunday!!!

Travel diary

I love to keep a record of my travels in a diary. Many years ago...pre-marriage... my best mate and I, quit our jobs and travelled around the world for 9 months. We had the time of our lives.


I wrote a diary every day and recorded where we went, what we ate, what we saw, how we travelled and how much it all cost. Great to look back on now and if anyone asks where to stay whilst on their trip... Im sure to have the buisness card of the place we stayed in.

So, we are heading of an a little trip together in a few weeks. I will be needing a travel diary of course. Picked this one up....even though it does have a tropical feel to it....you and I know it just wont do!!

Out with a cute piece of fabric and the spray glue. And there you have my new improved travel diary ready and waiting.
