Weekends by the Water

Another weekend has come and gone – this one however, was not quite as adventurous as the previous two. It seems the pace of the office has caught up with us as we enjoyed staying near and around the house, doing a bit of cooking, reading and writing. Nevertheless, we made our way CBD (Central Business District or “downtown) a couple of times on our new favorite way in – the ferry. Not only is it more scenic, but it turns out it is also faster -- so you guessed it, this is our new daily commute!


We did make our way to the little café around the corner – yes, this is our neighborhood!


But for the most part, we each did our own thing – Morgan went to the Powerhouse Museum which is much like a science and history museum focusing on Australian objects. I learned a bit more about Australia by sitting harbourside with a new book written by an Australian author, a beer, and a live jazz band in the background, all the while soaking in a bit of sun. Indeed, there is a little Australia for everyone! We left home as we arrived – with one heck of a view!


As for Australian word of the day: “Arvo”, which afternoon. It is hard to replace G’Day, but we see arvo written all over the place.

Until next time, blessings and G’Day!
