Skywatch Friday


One thing I love best about living in Australia is the vibrant blue sky.
It is one thing I will never take for granted 
especially after years of living under 
Hong Kong's polluted hazy skies.

Bulleen, Melbourne
Melbourne is known for it's four seasons in a day.
Our blue sky is ever changing.
Last Friday when we went on a walk 
the sky was full of fluffy clouds

Footscray Park, Melbourne
Here are more fluffy white clouds in Federation Square, 
downtown Melbourne

Federation Square, Melbourne
It's all storm clouds & rainbows at the football recently
perhaps reflecting Australia's valiant play at the FIFA World Cup in Brazil
... despite their World Cup dreams ending this week!

If you are new to my blog you won't have met Little Miss Hussy
she's a racehorse that we know.
Unfortunately, it's a permanent stormy day for us at the racetrack these days
as our filly is out at grass on her holidays at the moment,
resting, recovering...

Cranbourne racing training centre
Talking of holidays the end of the school term is in sight - Hooray!
Apart from the trip to Bangkok
we hope to spend some time at the beach.
It's the middle of winter here
so it won't be sunbathing weather.
but hopefully we will get some lovely sea air walks.

Autumn Spice and everything nice!

Hey, what ever happened to Summer? I hope yours was lovely, mine was pretty amazing! It feels like my whole year has whizzed past in a flash, how about yours?  I've had a year of saying "yes" to everything offered to me. It has been exciting to put it out to the Universe to see where I should be. We feel very fortunate to be able to do this in my husband's early years of retirement. I'm just back in Asia from the US. I never feel my year is quite right without seeing British daffodils in the Spring and a pumpkin and the leaves turning in Autumn. Yay, the world nailed it this year, thank you.  Read on to find out what happened when my ultimate yes occurred on a trip to Montana to meet Ruth, an IG friend. I know Bloggers will smile and not be at all concerned, we've been meeting up around the globe for years, haven't we...?!  But let's just say some of my family and friends were, you're doing what?! But first some Little Wren updates! France I had so...

Taipei Adventures, naked - moi?!

I have to tell you all about my little adventure in Taipei recently, naked at the Hot Springs! I can't believe that I have never been to Taiwan, I certainly urge you all to go if you ever get the chance. For me, I loved the combination of influences of two countries I enjoy.  Street views from Downtown Taipei The Chinese left some interesting historical influences and stunning architecture, which combined with a Japanese legacy and efficiency in transportation, makes Taipei an easy place to visit, with so much to see. Nowadays, Taiwan has emerged as a thoroughly modern city, I loved my time there. It felt exotic and safe until I had to get my kit off. It was a spur of the moment decisions to join my husband on his Taiwanese business trip, prompted by the delay in the arrival of our furniture into Bangkok, and ‘no room at the inn’ where we had been staying. Given that I’m commitment and fancy-free in Thailand; there’s no job, no kids, no dog and absolutely nothing in ...

L'eau de toilette....

Our meals at The Serai were a huge part of the enjoyment of our stay. Lunch & dinners are marathon five course events...We tried not to over-order but even when we cut back to try to pace ourselves, Chef would send out little treats for us to try... If one person expressed an interest in a particular dish, we all got it.... Whenever someone ordered something we all got it.... ...although sometimes it took a quite a few attempts... 'Can you do oats, no milk?' .... 'Can you do ginger, hot water and some lemon, no milk?' We have an eclectic group of tastes from Miss ' Extra spicy ' to Miss ' Not too spicy ' through to Miss ' Vegetarian, no dairy ' , myself as ' Miss Recovering, extra careful and just wants soup. ...and even Miss India herself who every now and again just orders chips... So we can't leave without saying a huge thank you to the Chef for the best food that we have had so far.... We hear conflicting reports about whether th...
