LSNED: September 17

Oh My Goodness!  What an awesome day in Sydney today!  Spring has really arrived, with temps up around 28 degrees where I live!  It really makes me feel good when the weather is nice.

We've been to the airport today to wish our friends a bon voyage on their big family holiday to Europe.  It's the first time they have travelled such a long way as a family, and I think I was just as excited as them.  They are travelling to Singapore, Rome, Florence, Venice, Paris, Euro Disney, London and Bangkok on the way home - a 4 week adventure that I wish I was going on with them!  Maybe next time.

Today I am reminded that it is only 1 week until the next school holiday break.  We all need it so much.  We are thinking of taking a quick trip to Canberra to see the Floriade.  But even if we don't, just being able to sleep in, catch up and slow down will be so nice!  Taking a break is needed to recharge the batteries!
