Darwin!

I woke up to 5 degrees this morning. It was wet and cold. So miserable even a bed and breakfast laid infront of me won't wake my lazy bones.

I didn't want to go to work, didn't want to do anything but sleep. And to think that winter is well and over... I'm wrong.

Procrastinated for a wee bit. Well considering yesterday was a public holiday, I'm actually quite proud I made it into work this morning.

Anyways onto a chirpier note! Here are some photos of my recent trip to Darwin...




Perth to Darwin on Virgin Blue


Feeding fishes at Aquascene!












ice cold beer and Thai seasoned mussels.. YUM!

Aunty and Uncle's shot with a baby croc




Baby crocs with big appetites... there were hundreds of them overlapping each other!

"15 interesting facts about me" tag

Sara had a tag called the "20 interesting facts about me" tag game.

I thought it was a quite a fun tag to do so here's mine.

I only managed to come up with 15. Was already struggling at 10! Well Im clearly not an interesting person am I.

I...
1. wake up at 5am everyday even on weekends
2. snap when anyone messes up the house
3. don't like/eat rice
4. go grocery shopping everyday
5. must have a piece of dark chocolate every night before I go to bed
6. only stopped drinking from a milkbottle at the age of 7
7. love long walks - the longer the better!
8. can't leave the house without a hand-sanitizer
9. wear super XL tees and baggy berms to bed. Very unglam but comfort is more important!
10. have phobia of aircraft landing
11. am as blind as a bat. Both my eyes records a staggering 4.75.
12. love eating Milo from the tin
13. had 2 precious terrapins who died on the same day. Ironically enough their names were Romeo and Juliet.
14. have a leg that's almost an inch longer than the other
15. had the longest hair back in high school. Believe it or not….a classmate of mine forgot to bring a thread for his Geography test. He pleaded to lend him a strand of hair and so I did. What made me crack was after the test, he returned it to me and thanked me like no other.. I was made God for a day.

I tag… only if feel like doing :)

COLD

I will be flying off to Darwin this Friday.
I'm pretty excited for two obvious reasons. One I've never been to Darwin and two, I get to 'escape' from the cold here.

Recent mornings have dipped to 2 degrees - so cold I've been reluctant to get out of bed.
Thank goodness for the invention of electric blankets or I would be freezing in bed!
