The view from my "office"

Afternoon walk with the heavy fog rolling in. Cannot remember ever seeing heavy fog in the morning and then returning in the afternoon.

But today is a sparkler! Clear and sunny. I hope the fog has gone. It has been very disorienting.

Happy Bastille Day all

Adelaide Central Market today

I should have gone in. On our original booking we were supposed to be in Paris today! (That got changed when CX went flaky in Jan). I saw a crepe being made on TV with nutella - i remember lining up for those in the Latin Quarter two years ago. Sublime.

Ah, spent one Bastille Day dinner here a few years ago.


Need a jealous button as well ;) I was in a small village near Avignon a few years and the fireworks were fantastic. A friend in Nimes this week said no fireworks

I was too late to get the raclette and didn't have a crepe because I was going out for dinner

I bought a raclette a few weeks ago from the market. Still in its box. Saw it being served yesterday. I need a cheese fix. Smelly Cheese on Friday.
 
Passing through Qld “customs” at BNE airport earlier in the week. The number of times someone lined up down the side yelled “hold up your border passes” I felt like I was going through checkpoint Charlie

Did you ever go through Checkpoint Charlie? Much better than Checkpoint Melbourne. Very little to complain about IMHO.
 
I'm conflicted to post the view from my office last weekend. I did post it on FB, however I was told in no uncertain terms that I had caused mass damage to people and why should I purport happiness when there were people there whom which I had upset and caused great harm. If you disagree, please PM me and I will post the pics. A few friends agreed I should as it's places no one else had seen but I don't want to upset anyone.
