The Shootist

We stayed up late watching Grimm last night, so I had a lovely sleep in this morning and then went for an extra long walk in the beautiful warm sun enjoying the blue blue sky.

I ran some last minute errands with Terri and Bec.....I hesitate to confess I bought more souvenirs- I had to get something for the dogs, didn't I?!!

I had a pastie with Stephen's homemade sauce and a passion fruit drink for lunch.

I packed my third bag, slept some more, quizzed Kelsey on her legal studies, and enjoyed my last day of doing nothing and not having to be anywhere or make any decisions and just hanging out with my dear friends.

Bec booked us all in for tea at a local Pub...I had a steak, salad and chips. Not the most well-done of well-done steaks...probably the most pink I've ever eaten...but it was fun to be there all together.

I had my favorite white chocolate drink and a shortbread bikkie when we got home.

It was a very nice last day of vacation.

This trip has been a lovely break from reality and a lovely visit to Australia. I've seen wallabies, kangaroo, koala bears, galas, cockatoos, and rosellas. I've seen beautiful rolling hills and the blue-green ocean. I've experienced humid hot days, rainy cool days and everything in between. I've had fun, seen the sites, been lazy, read books, slept whenever I wanted, eaten my favorite Australian foods, and spent wonderful days with friends.

I would love to stay in this lovely place with these people I love, but I miss my family, I miss being in my homeland, I miss my mountains, and I am sure, I would eventually miss earning my keep...so I am homeward bound.

See you all in 30-something hours. Xoxo
