Friday And The Sun Is Shining

The weather is such that it is becoming necessary to get away a little earlier in the day for my bike ride. It is beginning to warm up. Right now it is in the high 20's in our sheltered back yard. Yesterday the pool nudged 27 degrees late in the afternoon while this morning it was between 24 and 25.

Trish spent yesterday on a "Familiaristaion Day" with the Tourist Information Centre. About 30 of the volunteers were escorted around Rainbow Beach (about 80k north of us) and shown the sights and the accommodation. This should then convert into more visitors being directed their way.

They were fed and escorted to some of the attractions of the area. We then headed out for tea at the Thai place in town. Trish had arrived home a little late so we had a night out.

I downloaded the movie "Eat, Pray, Love" so we watched that last night. It was a definite "chick flick". Today I grabbed a copy of "The Social Network" which tells the story of how Facebook was started up. Gets a great score!

I have completed renovating the small side tables and I have been happy with the way they have come up. Look good don't they?

Did my 13+k's this morning and got talking to several people. I met Waiy who has been living here in Australia from Singapore for well over 40 years. We had a great chat about food of course. Then I ran into another guy named Brian. He too is a home brewer and gave me a stubby of his latest brew to try. Looked good riding at 8 am with a stubby in hand!
