Wow I see the sun..

I have seen the sun 3 days in a row!! And its warm!! to my suprise I found out it's the Melbourne AFL Grand Final (Australian Rules Football) this weekend. In Melbourne you cannot escape it, and hear nothing but talked about.. Not that I don't like it mind you.. It creates tradition and ritual which are reassuring to people, brings them together around a television, BBQ and gets my family and long time family friends together every year. Go teams...

glad its Friday..

Gardens, wine, respite


Friday night was a nice quiet one after drinks at work..

Having settled in and now I am starting to have a few weekends where I don’t have to rush around.. After some house hunting for a bigger place (no luck this week) , I went to the Domain a park in Auckland, for a walk and took a few photos.. I want to go back there again its such a nice park and that afternoon did laundry (woo hoo) and watched a DVD ‘howls moving castle’ an animated film...

I met friend in a nice café suburb near me for drinks Saturday night and ended up sleeping in late. but Sunday after a slow recovery, I went for brunch and looked around the shops again for a while. That afternoon I watched more cartoons and an animated cartoon called ‘the cat returns’ ... so its been a great mooching weekend.. the weather is improving which was great Sunday and today but its under cut but the ozone hole shifting over Auckland for a few days. its usually over Melbourne.. Jfully open daffodil
