Happy Holidays!

I think I am suffering from ‘I wish I was still on holidays lying on a beach and not at work sitting at a desk’ syndrome. Not only do I lack the basic ambition to get out of bed for work in the morning but also the motivation to write about my trip back to Oz for it will be so so long and I am so so lazy. I will try my darndest (way to American for me) to encapsulate something worth reading for you all.

Note: To make this post look longer I will strategically insert pictures for viewing. Remember – A picture tells a thousand words so this post could well be nearing 5-10 thousand words in length. Woooaaah!! Yes, thank you!

Hmmm…



This first picture was supposed to be classical. You know, an intriguing piece of mastery where you see me in the rear view mirror and my friend Dave*, however, it failed quite miserably thanks to his girlfriend Bec** who suggested such a preposterous idea.



This is the famous ‘loo with a view’ I have mentioned in prior posts. The view is beautiful and the people warm and friendly. It was a delightful 28C/87F. To the right of the picture is the loo. Btw – I have no idea how I managed to capture probably the only 4 people on the Queensland coast who thought it was a good idea to wear a suit to the beach. Anyhoo…



White sand and blue oceans is what it’s all about. Oh, and I promise I wasn’t taking a picture of that topless girl. Although that certainly was one of the beaches perks^.



Delectable desserts are always a fan fav! My friends who had me over for dinner that night know of my notorious sweet tooth and knew no matter what the night would bring, it would be A-OKAY if there was chocolate involved. They get an A+ for hospitality. Anything with chocolate involved will have me begging for more! Note to ladies: Anything with chocolate involved is going to get you in. Give me an m&m and im yours.




The Valley Markets are a great place to be after a rather big night out on the drink and you would like something, anything to get you out of the house the next day. There are lots of trinkets, clothes, jewelry, old vinyl’s and random stuff to buy. This is also the location of many a good nights out as once the sun goes down this place turns in to a melting pot of artsy, fartsy piss heads and non-prescription drug users.




This is my friend Sam*** who I would show but I think its better left that we don’t. Basically, if you take away the bag she pretty much looks like what the bag has drawn on it^^


I played putt-putt (miniature golf) with the couple who cooked me dinner with the fondue ( I have more then 2 friends, believe it or not) and at the 16th hole they have this for the golfers who arnt doing as good as they had hoped. I thought it was pretty stupid. They should have one at every hole.

So there you have it. I have some phrases those cuddly lil aussies fart out of their mouths which I shall post later in thy week. Stay tuned..

*This is his real name
** so is this
^ No pun intended
*** Real name
^^ Sorry Sam
