Seen on a Sunday….


Shush – even though there might be tourists in town

Nothing stops siesta time in the square

Me in my small (warm) corner and you in yours

Day and Night…

Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon and under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It’s no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Night and day

Night and Day ~ Words & Music by Cole Porter (1891 – 1964)

I know there are many staterooms with their own balconies but really and truly the only place to experience the benefit of being close to the ocean is on the promenade deck of one of my favourite cruise ships

Some time or another when we feel it is safe to do so we will return

I am really missing my Vitamin Sea 😊

And so it goes….

The world is turning……the autumn equinox is upon us – about 3.30am tomorrow – March 21st

Equal day & night – well almost 😊

The sun rose at 7.22am this morning and will set 7.33pm this evening

And if I hadn’t turned around in the supermarket I would’ve missed this 👇

It must be a recent addition because I’ve never seen it before

Similar – not quite the same as last week’s

Seen on a Sunday

Nearly 11 years ago – Sunday August 14th 2011 to be precise

Was the first time I saw THIS

Turned into
THIS


See below 👇

Seen near the car park at the Cedar Creek Falls
between Proserpine and Airlie Beach
in the Whitsundays

Then just one year later – Sunday August 26th 2012
Near the old Cafe on Flagstaff Hill Bowen
Far North Queensland

More of the Whitsunday’s Recycling Scheme

Two different styles of the bench this time – the simple one above and this one with formed back and small table structure in front.  Perfect place for your cool drink while taking in the view



Did you know

The energy saved by recycling one plastic drink bottle will power a computer for 25 minutes.
