The view from my "office"

[Scarlett]

Some other office photos from current Easter long weekend:

1. Morning stroll across the tarmac to our lovely Super Air Jet public bus. Seat pitch in row 14,000 was a manspreadingly small 71cm.


2. Enroute views. Plenty of these, although the recently active Mt Merapi near Yogyakarta was obscured by cloud.


3. Hello DPS. (for 1.5 hr transit)


4. Clean up required; aisle six.


5. Resort in Senggigi, Lombok.

Beach and the Lombok Strait on the other side of the pool. Very pleasant, except for a couple of stray dogs on the beach which decided to get aggressive with Mstr Scarlett and scared him.

6. Breakfast view across the Lombok Strait. Mt Agung on Bali doing a Fuji impression.


Car park report: nil.

Returning, looking towards chez Roo office, where lunch will be quiche and salad, unfortunately.

No fish for lunch then?

Avenue of the Giants, CA.


Good Friday was just a regular workday. We practically had the road to ourselves.

Lets just say the quiche was very nice.

Another Good Friday view from the Admin block of Hospital Sant Pau. Some things are the same the world over with the administration having the best view.







The crowds. The last time we visited in 2004 it was off the Hop on bus in front,walk to the ticket office with no queue and inside. Now must book online only. I dodn't think it would have been worth it today.

Good Friday view

I dunno, La Sagrada always looks very creepy. If it were a movie set it would easily be the Castle of the bad witch

Spooky, I was going to say in my post that Gaudi was inspired by trees and his design for the LSF!

Today the Valencia Opera House. Inspired by Greek mythology. Said to represent a Spartan's helmet.

We get free laundry. Always have, and at 100 days it is automatic. The laundry service in general is very good, picked up by 8am and back in your room by 5pm. Certainly helped in keeping us at 1 big case for the trip
There is a self serve laundry on each floor if you need to do your own washing.

The view from our Easter office in São Martinho de Mouros in the Douro Valley.



We can actually see the river!


Our AirB&B is an old farmhouse.

With retro interior, quite comfortable.

My office view over Easter:




Cairns, Queensland

This is the view in the hotel foyer. A chocolate Easter tree stump.



Designed from a photo of an actual tree stump in the Daintree rainforest, the entire thing is made of chocolate.

The detail is incredible.

This is torture for chocoholics like me, but are they really going to break up and eat such an artwork?

No idea. But it’s enormous and would require all guests and staff to help consume it if they did.

Just in case they do share it I went for a very long walk today to burn some calories.

36 degrees and 100% humidity.

View from my steamy walk office…


Cairns, Queensland.

View from across the Port River towards our place.



And Rocket, the orphan dolphin but thriving, next to our floating pontoon.

First thing I did when I got to SanPaTong home yesterday was ask daughter if she wanted to go water park. I have never seen it this busy.



And then my friends the buffalo's





And BBQ at home in evening with "wood" charcoal. Love this better than the heat beads in Australia.





And some pork, seafood and chicken wings

After sweltering through my late morning walk, the evening was much cooler… and arguably prettier.












Cairns, Queensland.

“wood“ charcoal is readily available in Australia and you don’t need to settle for heat beads/briquettes if you don’t like them

Retro? I've got an armchair like those floral ones!
