Melt with Me

After all Life is for living not working but what fun would life be if we didnt have the contrast between the leasure time and the serious productive grunt time.. I enjoy working, the structure I have, the people I interact with .. especially here at the Lagoon Cafe.. It is wonderful being in a very social zone and getting paid while making people laugh as I am making them a delicious Iced coffee or something like that.. .. So the days are counted and the departure date is, well a bit like a moving target but I get there eventually even if i have to catch a quicki flight and just suck it up with the most quickest route, not the most scenic. I have thoroughly enjoyed working for the family I have been. All KUDOS to them and the re Bright Future with the new Buisness, Millar's Kitchen!!!~~~ Basically this is a HUGE THANKS to those sassy and spirited Hardings, that love me and know me.. THANKS FAMILY!

The Melbourne Cup has been a day of glamour, prestige and celebration for the past 143 years and is that one Tuesday in November where Australia stops for a horse race. If there should ever come a day that a country might be vulnerable I would reckon that it would be yesterday:Melbourne Cup day yep that just might be it.. Fancy attire and what appears to me a classy feeling... all betting on a spectacular event where a 1000 pound beast pumps and snorts and grinds the grassy soil as it sprints into the distance with the jockey trying to get across the line first.. wow.. the thrill and rush. especially if you placed a bet.. like I DID>. yep .. I am not the gambling type.. NO SUR'REBOB but I managed to place 4 bets and guess what I did.. YES>>!! big beginners luck action happening for me.. I picked 3 of the top 4 horses and if I hadn't been such a cheep skate I would have broke the bank.. HA HA.. The WINNER was Efficient then Purple Moon then Mahler.. HOLY toledo.. the fo...

Hiya Strange world, I am back and this time refreshed and really to have a tell tale about my last night. My neighbour across the street has a brand new boat nice one too. he offered to take me out on its maiden voyage but i couldn't make it but last night I set off for a very eventful evening of night fishing, and oh what a night, we launched from a small town just north of where I live near Port Douglas, that's the pictures above. We set off to catch Spanish mackerel or something edible and let me tell you what we caught instead. First stop, petrol and ice as we bought ice and the lot we came back to the vehicle and there was a lovely yellow large hummingbird flying around inside, this I thought was good.. If we can catch a bird with out trying we were sure to catch some fish. Launched the boat at 5pm 1.75 hours before sun fall. Absolutely beautiful. Crystal clear aqua marine water and the biggest permagrin on my face.. we be-lined, with the GPS recording, over to Double Isl...

Creepy Crawlies, I have become so accustomed to seeing the range of insects, spiders and frogs and snakes that now I just invite them in and give them tea and a biscuit, then send them outside. Its funny Most bugs want nothing to do with us stinky humans but there are a few that really like our companionship, those would be the cockroaches; funny shinny big eyed big antennae creep crawly jumpy things.. Well not to many more dramas. What’s MORE, along this journey of mine I have travelled through Asia Minor. INDIA, well over 855,000 Kilometres, from the southern Most States of Kerala and Tamil Nadu to some of the Northern states including Sikkim, Rajasthan and Bihar. After doing the Mainland I decided to carry on to some of the most beautiful Islands ON the Face of the Planet. The Andaman’s, WOW baby talk about private wonderful and glorious. After Asia Minor I decided to carry on to Thailand thus far in the world of travel MY FAVOURITE place. Furthering my travel to, Myanmar, Lao and C...
