Broke
My enforced break from blogging has had its advantages. I have had more time to relax but there are many things I would have posted about that are too long ago now. So, I will just move on as if nothing happened and start from where we are now.
Well, I may back up little bit. On Friday I got up at five, made lunches (yes, I should have done that the night before) and drove to the airport for the 6.30am flight to Sydney. I spent the day at the State Library learning about what services and resources they offer public libraries and going down way underground to see the stacks and some of the wonderful things they have in their collection. It was a great day, but very long. I got home at 8.45pm and then packed so Toby, Bethany and I could leave irst thing in the morning.
Another 5am start had us all ready to go at 5.45. We encountered this scene on the way out of town. Next week daylight saving begins but for the moment, it gets light very early. We lasted a good while before eating what I had packed for breakfast and then, half and hour later Toby asked if it was lunch time yet. It was 8am. We stopped at Berrima to go to the Lolly Swagman and managed to get all the way to Broke by 2pm. I thoroughly recommend the early start!
What a delightful time we have been having! We have missed Andrew and Joss but Joss had a very special birthday slumber party to attend so they are driving up today. I have taken a ridiculous number of photos so will show you how we have been spending our days.
We've been walking in the vines.
Eating wonderful food (this is, or was for we scoffed the lot, orange bread and butter pudding).
Some of us have been riding on the tractor.
It seems to be taking FOREVER to upload these photos so I will return later with the rest of our little holiday.
