Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

Once again can't keep my eyes open with 1/2 hour left in a series.
Very Australian tho. Spectacular scenery.


Found the dog awake on the couch at 3 am for reasons known only to her.
Marc enjoying Thailand and angsting over elephants. Cute riding partner but platonic

Maybe ride this morning as up at 7 and lovely day. Doc this aft then Bowls.
Sounds reasonable.

Bowls yes ride no ....forgot about appointment for new glasses.
Then successful doc visit - they let me ride another year
TWO new specialist appointments to add to my "getting old sucks" list.
Podiatrist or some such ....have a big toe that hurts with any pressure on it - no sure what's up.
Sinusologist ( pure guess ) - have a badly impacted upper sinuses which explains the long term post nasal drip.

Off to drown my sorrows in bacon, cheese on chips melt.

24 hours later a birdie and a lovely evening. 22 c quiet.
Watching Charlie and Ewen. Gotta say Ewens second wife is lovely. I liked his first wife and sad when they parted ways but this second girl is very attractive. Ewen and cat that ate the canary look

Took longer for the lightbulb tonight. Chilly 16.6 C
Short ride today - New gloves need some breaking in but feel much more protected.
Scored a $5 bacon deluxe

No wonder I skipped supper.

Slept late Sunday morning ....did not want to leave warm bed.
The lengths I go to stay warm in a house with no heat.

Love the hospital socks. My 60 lb weight drop certainly shows here tho camera aided.

Marc in Thailand.

No sign of Noraly lately.
It's noon and "may" finally be warm. Quite a windy day and of course wide open deck to the wind....normally the breeze is nice but not when it's chilly.

Noraly having fun in London chasing her book and sight seeing. The Tenere 700 she borrowed looks good. Buddy here is buying one for around Australia trip. Really nice luggage set up
She is still enthusiastic and giggly at new things even after 8 Seasons.
