We are undertaking a Shutdown, with the Qld boys flying back into Brisbane in Saturday evening. I'll be there to meet them, thank them for their efforts and collect payroll information.
They finally make it off the plane, tired, and pleased to be home, after a successful and super safe shutdown at Prominent Hill Mine.
I flew down on Friday, catching up with the big fellow in the evening. Saturday morning, we were up early and walked down to the local Farmers Market for breakfast. The food at this market is fantastic, fresh fruit n veges, seafood, breads and pastries, organic yoghurt juices just to mention a fraction.
We happily have breakfast, juice n coffee before undertaking the walk home. It's a beautiful day, voting day in Qld, the streets are busy with families, out walking in the sunshine. It's another one of those 'great to be alive' days.
Spent the Afternoon in wild and frantic West End. There's always such a vibe happening in this suburb of Brisbane, there are buskers and music on each street corner, I always find myself loosing a number of hours, people watching and embracing the diversity here.
Sunday saw another beautiful day dawn. Off to a Market at Ascot for some breakfast, before heading to Brighton to catch up with friends and make some new ones. Lunch by the Marina at Sandgate Yacht Club, under the trees and savouring a cool drink or three watching the passing parade of yacht and fishing boats. On my way home, I pinch myself at how wonderful my life has become in the last few days... I am a very lucky girl.
Monday brings a full day of work, with a quick break in the middle to watch the last quarter of the Super Bowl, watched it for 30 minutes and still no closer to understanding the rules of this American Institution..
Back to the Emerald City Tuesday morning for the week, preparing for a trip to Fiji very soon.. I'm getting excited.
