Sylvia and I have just returned from the perfect holiday.
We returned to a popular destination for us, so we knew what to expect.
We went for a break and so avoided the touristy stuff just relying on our accommodation the attraction the golf course and great restaurants to satisfy all our desires.
The most important of these was the bed. At our age having a great big bed to look forward to every evening and during the day after eating is very important. Also having the sea at our door so that early morning and late afternoon dips in the sea was also most important.
I admit to spending several hours just bobbing up and down in a lovely warm sea which if you went out far enough had the occasional chilly patch to refresh my warmed body.
We also made full use of the various pools available to us, (mostly adults only). We did not want to annoy any kids.
The golf course while having water across just about every hole gave us enough challenge to focus on the role of the green to achieve a reasonable score (for us anyway) and I nearly sunk one ball in one of the streams but while nearly falling in I managed to retrieve it much to the enjoyment of my lady. It was very hot, but we persevered and with the aid of a wonderful golf buggy really enjoyed our sojourn.
So good to see land where rain falls regularly.
We did not over eat, in fact, I lost weight while there, but we ate as much as we wanted, perhaps more than we needed.
We were sad the day before we came home because we hate packing, but we felt good about coming home. There really is no place like home is there, especially when home is Australia.
Coming in over Sydney and the Bridge must be one of the most welcoming sites possible to see.
Thank you, Sydney, for finishing of our Holiday in such a spectacular way.
Yes, back to work now and looking forward to catching up with my mates and clients through the office. I am going to do whatever it takes to make the rest of this year and all of 2019 a period to remember for everyone.
