In and around Streaky Bay



Have I told you how amazing this coastline is - oh yer that's right only every post for the last week. Well the last couple of days have been no different still amazing and just when you think no more cliffs another one comes along just a little bit different. But what really changed yesterday was the weather very chilli breeze in from the South West and this brought up a big swell. The swell has been just wonderful to watch Jim has to drag me away.

The swell has been a little disappointing for me because I would love to go for a swim with the sea lions - yes you can do it (with a company) but the boats wont go out with the swell.

Now for a small admission - the Gr_y Nomad morph is nearly complete. Some of the things that I have noticed that have changed for me - I make the bed every morning (you have to so the bed can be used to store things on while you are travelling those who know me well will know how astounding this is) I know where everything goes - everything has a spot and has to be returned to that spot before you take off anywhere. I check that all the cupboards are locked and nothing is left around to go flying. I wear a key to the bus around my neck (initially I told myself that I was just having withdrawal symptoms from wearing a lanyard at work but that is not true) and then finally today I had a shower at 4:30 (we got home from a day of adventure and I said to Jim I think I will shower before it gets to dark - oh no!) And then here it is the final straw a glass of very cheap wine while writing my blog - the only saviour here is that I am not sitting in a McDonalds using there free wi-fi but that is because there is no McDonalds in Streaky Bay. Now while saying all this I have been thinking is this really a bad thing - I think not.

Hi you two. What a life, hey. With nothing to do the routine of doing it becomes important, I think you are in holiday mode. There are three things that are important,finding the house - so with the key around the neck you have that covered, finding a bed, you said you have that covered, and something to drink, guess you have that covered too! The only other morph to be aware of is wearing a GN name tag.
Good luck.
