I was spoiled rotten with a rockstar experience - a sunny afternoon on a boat with 20 friends. We drank champagne, dined on lobster and swam in the glorious harbour. We also played banangrams that isn't so rockstar....but very much what we like to do.
I was reminded how lucky I was to have such great friends and to live in such a beautiful city. Life can be tough, and things can drag you down, but it can also drag you up from time to time with it's perfection.
Linking up this fabulous memory of my best birthday ever for #FavouriteFotos. My husband organised an amazing day our for me and my friends, and we all felt so lucky to have such a luxurious day on the water.
I love this. You nailed it "Life can be tough, and things can drag you down, but it can also drag you up from time to time with it's perfection." Perfect.
ReplyDeleteYou swam in the harbour? Like deep in the harbour? EEEEK!!!!

ReplyDeleteLike a speed scrabble game - my crew are all slightly addicted to it...

ReplyDeleteDearest Lydia!!! When will I see Australia! that is always my question because whenever I have travel plans I would always say okay, next will be Australia but then I end up visiting another country HAHA But maybe soon because one of my former students has moved to Parramatta and would be visiting her someday soon hopefully :)
