First weekend back

After 5.5 half years away, I'm back Down Under with just a few bits of luggage!

 Here's some of what I've appreciated and been grateful for in the last 2 days

-Hot running water from every tap

-Drinking the tap water

-Having an exhaust fan in the bathroom so bathroom doesn't get steamed up when I have a hot shower

-Lucy's lovely Serbian neighbours who included me in their Christmas lunch on Sat 7th Jan( Jana and Jordan, Serbian plum brandy, PAVLOVA and traditional Serbian fig and walnut roll for dessert)

-

Drinking a proper hot chocolate at the Lindt cafe ( a small pot of melted dark choc is served with hot milk of your choice for you to doctor as you prefer- yummy and worth every calorie)

-Buying a pair of lovely red leather Mary Janes from the end of year sales IN MY SIZE

-Buying rice milk to have with breakfast and chai tea

-Sour Squirms (candy/lollies)

-Traffic that stops at pedestrian crossings so I can cross safely

-Sunsets at 8pm!!! So much more of the day to enjoy ( sunrise is 5.45am)

-Worshipping in a church building
-Home made fruit cake for morning tea
-Meeting old friends
-Soap free body wash
-New electric toothbrush
