Last night the Boy and Doza and I got back from 6 days away in Sydney, NSW. A welcome break from all the paperwork I’ve been doing over the last few weeks.
We went to the theatre (twice), went shopping, lunched with friends, hiked around Manly, and even climbed the Harbour Bridge! It was an exhausting holiday! But a great week away.
AFL Grand Final day today. I enjoyed it not so much because of the footy but because it’s a whole day of friends, drinks, food, sun and antics. Had a big lunch then got my cider on, followed by a walk to the beach with the girls, came back and watched the second half of football with the guys (Ok, Hawks well dominated Sydney, congrats for the second year in a row), then spent the rest of the day and evening hanging out. Felt very slothful and loving life. 
I’m in Sydney for a 3 day conference at Manly. The hotel is right on the beach and it’s beautiful weather here; almost makes you want to skip a day full of seminars! Doza has been helping me with some trans-state work before bedtime.
