Never thought i’d be ….
Couldn’t believe it… last night i’n in attendance of a work colleagues engagement party (great couple btw, definitely think they’ll make the distance) and as per the lyrics in the Gagajang classic ‘This is Australia’, I was witnessing it first hand…
Out on the patio we’d sit,
And the humidity we’d breathe,
We’d watch the lightning crack over canefields
Laugh and think, this is Australia.
And in a way I was laughing and connecting with a piece of music in it’s most pure form. I knew how the writer felt when he (or she) penned the lyrics. One more amazing experience that’s difficult for me to articulate into words, but retrospectively i’ll understand that this is my life, these are my experiences. One day these collection of moments will become ripe for conversation and i’ll be sharing my experiences of the places i’ve journeyed to with my kids.
Strange to think of me and children in the same sentence….. but what can you do really?

The temperature continues to shoot up at an exhilirating pace here my in my humble abode. The a/c unit now runs basically 24/7 as re-cooling the room after a short break probably costs me more on the electicity bill then to just leave it running. However I will be heading out soon to the sun and the surf (probably should since i’m on the tip of the Great Barrier Reef), though this time i’m taking my own recommendations and wearing some sunscreen 
Post-swim we’re bailing over to a BBQ-and-beers session, and considering we’ve got a long weekend for Australia Day, hangovers are obligatory.
Maybe it’s just the Australia day theme coming through me atm, but i’ve seen a few of my posts of late have been slanting towards the aussie lifestyle. Maybe i’m just being thankful that we live in one of the best places in the world.
I’m off.
Loving all your work
Adam
