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 ...

Little Wobbly Wren

Hello everyone and how are you doing? For those of you in the depths of winter hang on in there. I'm sure Spring is just around the corner!  I had a memorable few weeks in January. Summer in Australia is usually my favourite time of year. This year it had a few challenges! Weather: Here in Australia, a fter the   bushfires   came the much-needed rains. I have never seen the parks and gardens of Melbourne looking so lush in February. W e had everything, and the kitchen sink, thrown at us weather-wise. The year continued with cyclones, flooding and storms pounding our country. I spotted this Melbourne street art and agreed with its sentiments. Our cars were pitted from the hail damage from a tropical storm and we seem to be constantly clearing up from dust storms which have covered us in a red layer.  No-one will ever dare complain as we are lucky compared with those who lost loved ones, property and businesses and the devastation to t...
