Always interesting to ponder the “sliding door moments” if the Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch or French beat the Brits to Oz.
It’s was only a matter of time before one European maritime “super power” arrived.

Escaping from the Canberra winter, even just for a week is compulsory says MrsK - so we're back to Lennox Head.

Just been in the Croatian office and returning back to Western Europe on IB
First of all, wow Croatia is beautiful
View attachment IMG_8670.jpegView attachment IMG_8764.jpeg
There was a middle aged white British man complaining at boarding about how chaotic it is. Made me realise how much I don’t want to be that person. Come on how much does boarding really matter. I feel as an early 30s I’ve matured more than he has after all my flights. Not to be elitist but must’ve been a sapphire or below as was in row 2 as I’ve had row 1 solo mostly on IB. Chill out and don’t sweat the small stuff
As a side note, I’ve really enjoyed IB. Had a nice prawn & cuttlefish with a saffron rice this evening with multiple riojas on a 2.5hr intra Europe.

I had a brief visit to Croatia, last year. I agree it's lovely and I'd like to return for a better look around.

MrsK was enjoying her time in Lennox Head to much, so she had decided to stay on an extra week, while I get back to work.

My office today is draining my sanity, patience and wallet simultaneously.
Luckily it’s filling the happiness bucket for Miss H and her friend.
