. . . when you're having fun. I can't believe we've been on our vacation - the time literally flew. 4 nights ended up feeling like 4 minutes. The truth is that we didn't really do all that much. As a matter of fact, other than heading into the closest town from where we were staying (about a 20 minute drive) to pick up supplies, we really didn't go anywhere else. We just sat around the house reading, taking the odd walk around the 88 acre property, and spending time in the hottub/spa. Oh.. and feeding birds. Feeding LOTS of birds. As you can see from the photo. This wasn't taken at a wildlife park - this was just outside the back door of the house we were staying in. We had a whole bunch of birds hanging around, waiting to be fed, including the one you see in the photo (a King Parrot), Cockatoos, Galahs (as a side note, being Australian I can never mention the word "Galah" without thinking of foolish people - scroll down the page at Wikipedia until you come to the "Australian Slang Term" description of what a "Galah" is if you have no idea what I'm talking about), Kookaburras, Currawongs, Rosellas and even a Magpie who spent most of his time on our back deck singing his sweet tune and waiting for us to feed him scraps of meat!
Anyway, the vacation is over, but we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and are very relaxed. If you'd like to see more photos, then make sure to stop by my account on Flickr. The house we stayed in (Sambar Park) not only met, but exceeded our expectations, by miles. It really was absolutely gorgeous.
So.. back to reality now I suppose. If you visit my account on Flickr, you'll no doubt see the glass order that turned up while we were away, so over the weekend, I plan on spending some time in the studio. With any luck, there should be a new set of beads ready to go up on eBay on Monday.
Enough out of me for one day - I have something like 680 emails (I kid you not!) to go through regarding work, so I better make a start on that before I can even think of settling in and enjoying the rest of my vacation weekend. Thanks for stopping by!
