following the dream

Time is so strange. Two weeks ago I was at work doing the usual things; talking to kids and talking to parents and of course, doing the limbo  -  as you do. At that time three days seemed like an eternity. I now face less than three days until Tom and I leave for our American/Mexico trip. And time seems to be racing at a ridiculous pace. This is supposed to be an exploratory posting to see how blogging works, so it will be short and sweet and to the point. I will leave the philosophical musings to life on the road. For the time being I will attempt to publish this and then take it up again when I have more to relate.
Yeeks! It is now many hours later and I have got a blog up and running but how I add to it on a daily basis is a bit of a mystery. Also how I upload more of my photos from my camera as I travel. I suppose I will stumble around and find a way.
I will try with a short description of lunch. Some weeks ago I purchased a Living Social voucher for either $59 or $55 to have a three course lunch with a bottle of win at Cala Luna at the Spit. Tom and I drove over there on a sparkling bright day after morning yoga. The weather is spectacular at the moment. So much so that yesterday I had my latest ocean swim ever. I don't remember ever swimming as late as 14th July.

Back to lunch. We were allowed to choose anything on the menu. We shared giant prawns, calamari, snapper, ocean trout, a pana cotta and a cheese plate. We added two coffees and a beer and ended paying a further $26.50 to the bill! So for a total of $86 odd we dined like kings.
O.K I didn't manage to download this picture from my camera. I had to copy it on to iphoto and then into this blog. A bit clumsy. I'll keep trying.
