the night sky from my room Bye Pamela!! See you again
It seems a while since I was so excited about a Friday @ 5pm... and this is a long weekend which is great for me as i found a tour that I wanted to go on that only runs Mon's Wed"s and Friday's. so Monday I am off to Chillagoe Caves and outback. It will be a long day with pick up at 7 am and drop off at 6.30.
My volunteer Buddy, Pamela returned home to Perth today. I will miss her and her bright cheery ways!! Last night we went out for dinner to an Indian restaurant. It was very nice - I think we ate too much!! It was a lovely balmy evening and we sat outside. Pamela brought her woolly jumper as she gets cold but I guess us Melbournites perhaps don't feel the cold as much.
The weather today was a little cooler and overcast. When I went to book my reef trip it seemed like a good idea to postpone that trip as the forecast is choppy seas. The trip to the caves sounds good and the reef can wait til next weekend
Saturday will be my market day - up early to get my fruit and veggies for the week. Paw paw and pineapples, passion fruit (grenadillas) and melons fruit salad for brekky on Sunday morning.
After the fruit market I will check out the markets along the Esplanadeand then onto the markets at the Pier.
Hopefully a stop for coffee along the way.
Yesterday I caught up with a young woman I worked with when on my last project in Cairns. It was lovely to see her and catch up with all the news of her family. I am fortunate to be able to volunteer in this way and be able to make new friends.
We met up with the CEO of the Cape York Land Council to talk about our project. the project staff seem happy with our progress to date and I will be back doing the hands on stuff on Tuesday.
Well that's about all for now. I am going to read my book and chill out with a glass of wine.
til next time
