Yep - I'm back

Why is it that so often I seem to find that I come back from holidays tired? Probably cos I get to caught up in doing too many things I guess. This time, most of it was invested with spending time with people I love, or meeting some new people. Which to be frank is a little odd for me to have enjoyed so much since what I love to do most on my holidays is hide away somewhere on my own...
But this time it worked for me. Started in Tamworth (hence the Golden Guitar) where I met Naree and stayed with her sister and their family for a couple of days before heading to Ballina.
So I thought I'd give you the highlights:

Hanging out with some old friends from college

Being able to spend time with Naree and let her be the wise one (as always) who acts as a compass for me

Sitting up late at night with Jeff and a drink solving each others, and the worlds, problems

Poached eggs and Katies coffee at 'Siroccos' - one of my all time favorite cafes


Getting up at 5.20 to walk up to Byron lighthouse with Jane and watch God's sun rise (ok, so that one was good and bad - the bad was the hour and walking/jogging 6k's at that time of day) followed by a big breakie with her girls

Just getting back to a place that I feel comfortable in...


For those who want more detail, (or are bored and want a way to avoid working) I've put a collection of photos together on my flickr under the album name "june/july road trip". Can I suggest that you look at it via the album not just what's loaded up on the main page - I put the photos in chronological order with descriptions so it will make more sense.
