Beaches at the end of the day when you get that last flare of the sun are the best.

A beach view. Sand stretches out in front of the photographer with patches of water where the tide is still running out. The sky has a band of cloud with the sun flaring a yellow orange behind it.

Went out for dinner last night before seeing a show. We popped back in afterwards to have dessert and a nightcap. I went with the vanilla bean panna cotta with passion fruit and shortbread biscuit as the dessert least likely to need me to loosen my belt.

A vanilla white coloured soft almost cylindrical dessert sitting in a shallow plate with passion fruit pulp surrounding it and layered on top. Two small round shortbread biscuits are beside it and the plate is lightly dusted in flour.

A day in the life. Dinner and a show. Bananaland as part of the Brisbane Festival.

Live long and prosper. 🖖🏻

Another sign I’m turning into my father: just had an afternoon nap because I’m going out tonight.

A favourite thing to do when visiting family in my hometown is to take a drive up the Eungella range. You can stop at the pub near the top and you get a great view back down the valley. You can just make out the road leading back to the coast cutting through the green.

A view down a green valley. Tops of trees are in the foreground and the valley floor fills the middle with a white ribbon of road visible. There are low mountains across the right side and a cloudy sky.

It’s been a week. TGIF.

The life of a cat. Will fall asleep anywhere, anytime.🐱

A black and white cat called Ali asleep in an enclosed part of a cream coloured cat tree. Her head is hanging over the edge of the round hole into the enclosure with one white paw visible.

Disruption. That’s definitely what this creates to my planned walking route.

I was browsing through photos looking for a new image to use as my zoom background and came across this one of Hadrian’s Wall. I remember standing there and thinking about how it was once the furtherest edge of the Roman Empire and how very different the countryside would have looked back then.

An open field with a ruined stone wall starting in the lower right then cutting across the middle of the photo and off into the distance. A group of trees are in the distance on the crest of a low rise.
