Ahhhhh.... Western Civilization!!! We arrived in Brisbane, Australia last night after all night and all day flying. We pickup our rental cars and WOW that was interesting!! Vehicles driving on the right side of the car and the left side of the road and round-a-bouts all over! Tired, smelly and now behind the wheel of an automobile. We made it to the apartment only to be greeted by friends from home. What a wonderful surprise!! Our corporate apartment is in the hustle and bustle Fortitude Valley and all the nightlife, too bad we were too tired to enjoy.
This morning we headed out to the country and our evening at Maggie's Farm. What a fabulous country home dedicated to corporate housing and meals. Maggie's Farm is a darling home and Annie is a fabulous cook and hostess!! She made a beef stew that anyone living in India for a month would crave! ..... ME! I have been able to decompress and enjoy the Australian wine and countryside while the men talked shop. :) Missing home had me clearning the table and looking forward to spoiling my family from my kitchen!
Tonight is the last night with my husband as I head back to Brisbane tomorrow. My time away is drawing to a close but with many wonderful memories and hearfelt intentions of returning to India AND Australia. This time away has opened my eyes to the belief of living in an area for a time in order to truly appreciate the culture and beauty.
G-day all!
