queensland

at the beginning of the week, bb & i took a quick trip to queensland. it was a dear friend's birthday and the perfect excuse to see the sun. it always amazes me how warm it can be in brisbane in july! we were only away for a couple of days but it was lovely all the same. we got to visit goma which i thought was fabulous and most importantly we got to catch up with lots of buddies who live in the north.

winter warmer

i spent the weekend in the sun, far far away from the twigs. two friends and i flew to brisbane from different bits of the country to visit another favourite friend who has recently moved up north. we ate lots, we sipped lots & we shopped lots. it was glorious!

we also saw kylie minogue in concert. i don't know what it is about kylie but i am a total fan. i feel like she has always been a part of my world. i first saw her in concert when i was about 13 - i'm 35 now so our relationship is well established. i don't have her poster on my bedroom wall anymore but i still hold her close to my heart.

i had a spectacular weekend with my precious friends but i felt very warm inside when the plane landed on this funny little island i now call home. there is nothing like a mabel greeting when i haven't seen her for a few days.
