Back home, suitcase in tow, laundry to do!

Leave a Comment/ 904/ 0

We are back home at Saunders Beach and had a great 3 day weekend in the Atherton Tablelands! Chris planned such a great trip and it seems like this was the “liquid” trip as we toured or visited several distilleries, wineries, coffee plantations and tea plantations!!! It was fabulous and very relaxing! I will blog more about them over the next couple of days but for right now I am a little tired and want to just chill out in front of the tv with a nice tall glass of iced tea!

The good news is that on the way home we stopped at the Townsville airport and picked up my red duffle—-no big deal–the guy just went and got it and handed it over! If he only knew!!! They all act so surprised when you show appreciation and shake their hands and thank them for something—like they aren’t used to that but good grief!!! Qantas did not ever even have me as a passenger this trip so how they ended up with my bag to handle I have no clue but I am just grateful and intend to send an email to someone thanking them–who I don’t know but I will figure it out!!! So I just unpacked my Hoops and YoYo mug, Chris’ Ivory soap and the signed book that I got for Chris from Cotton Ketchie and I think the rest can wait until tomorrow. I have a load of laundry in and am ready to just veg out for the night. Will post more pictures tomorrow when I get it all organized a bit!

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
