For the last week mum and I have been on holidays. We spent 4 nights with friends in Sydney at the bar of the blue mountains before jumping on a flight to Melbourne for and additional 3 nights. It has been a great trip. I have caught up with friends and I have relaxed all the whole spending time with mum.
Yesterday We rode the train to the outer suburbs for coffee with Some online friends of mine. Mum Now knows that they are real and that I am not cra cra crazy.. While it took only an hour to get there it took 2 1/2 hours to get back.
Well today I met up with some beautiful people for breakfast before I left Melbourne. We all forgot that it was ANZAC day and that the city would be chaotic with the anzac parade. Struggling to get to where we were meant to be meeting I finally arrived only 20mins late.
The atmosphere was amazing though and I am thankful that I got to experience it. Breakfast was a treat and the gossip was good too. Our reminded me why I got on so well with these people when I travelled to Europe last year.
At the end I said goodbye and promised to return. The crowds were still crazy so I planned to walk about half a km to get to a tram stop and use the tram to get back to the girl were mum was already checked out and waiting.
The plan sounds simple right? I watched the tram come up the road and stop. Everyone eventually got off and the tram suddenly went out of service. Time was ticking away and I needed to hurry back in order to get to the airport in time so I set off on foot. If it had been flat I think that I would have been alright but the hills on Latrobe st killed me.
After a quick call I had mum meet me outside and after getting my case off of her we kept moving towards the station. Now by this time my toes are cut and starting to go numb. I have never been so thankful that there was a shuttle bus waiting for us that I could get straight on.
So now I am here with numb feet hoping that when we get to the airport that I don't have to walk too far!
