WOW!

I couldn't wait to see the new Alice film and I wasn't disappointed, it was brilliant.

My mum read Alice in Wonderland to me when I was little but I have never seen any of the films that have been made.

I loved every minute of it and think I should fall down the rabbit hole more often, life would be much more fun if we all had a little more Hatter and Alice in us.

Tiger, Tiger Burning Bright

These "Lava Tigers" were set up in Circluar Quay and looked fabulous by day and night.

They appeared to be a sort of plastic covering a wire frame and attracted lots of attention

I'm sorry I don't know who or why.

Home Again

We've had the most wonderful time in Sydney.

It was my first visit and for the first couple of days was head was spinning.

We have seen only the smallest amount but enough to want to re-visit.

 

We ferried to Manley,

 

bused to Bondi,

and hung out at The Rocks.

We've eaten so much wonderful food and shopped both my suitcase and I gained weight.

While my suitcase got the "heavy" sticker, I got tested for explosives!

Flea Market Finds

Joining in again this week with Sophie's Flea Market Finds, I didn't find any treasure last week.

I found this dog doilie a little strange as who ever embroidered it used silver highlights for his eyes but beautifully stitched. 

A little green depression glass bud vase to add to my collection. I wish I had started collecting this 30 years instead of 10.

Pop over and see what other treasures have been found this week.

Moments

The balancing act is proving to be a tad difficult and in my next life I think I would like to be Miss Lilly.

Prehaps taking up rowing 3 mornings a week, yes early mornings and it's not exersise although it does require an expansion of engery. I have an alergy to exersise, but gliding across the water in the early dawn is fabulous and all you can think about is exactly what you are doing at that moment. I sometimes forget to live in the moment, I'm too far back or I'm too far forward.  

I know many of you are still in disbelief and falling off your chairs with laughter. The cheer squad grows daily with crys of "I have to see this"!  Maybe it's age, try before I die.

Hope everyone is enjoying a "moment". 

Balance

This week has been fast and furious as I try to balance play and work.

These galahs have been sitting on our TV antena most evenings this week, they seem to have the balance right.

Flea Market Finds

Joining in Sophies meme this week I found this delicate pink tablecloth, it has machine embroidered flower baskets so it's not very old but I still think it's pretty.

I can never say no to good old Johnson Brothers green crockery espically tea cups and saucers.

Sue has found the most amazing tablecloth.
