there and back again

blackhead

we're home from our mini-mini trip up the coast. we left later than scheduled, and got back earlier than planned. not that it wasn't lovely (gorgeous beaches and lovely people) but there just wasn't enough things to do and the place we stayed at didn't have alot of ... comforts. the first night there must of been down around 4-6 degrees and we only had a few blankets to ward off the icicles forming around the place. chilllly.

we did drive around a bit to see the local area, but nothing really took our fancy and we figured we'd get more things done back in sydney than we would twiddling our thumbs and eating rice cakes up north. it started raining up there today so that was the icing on the cake for us!

big step for me - it was my first long drive (ok, 5 hours is not that long to some) and while on the way there i did freak out a bit (my mind wanders into crazyland if everyone's sleeping and there's no one to talk to or change cd's for me), i did enjoy driving the rest of the time and wouldn't mind doing it again. we're headed to wollongong sometime next week so that should be easy compared to today's drive.

i've been feeling the early stages of a cold coming on for a few days, but i'm taking my herbs and drinking lots of water and i don't think it's going to get any worse. hooray!
