I tend to gravitate towards nature and the good old outdoors, which is probably why this past weekend was so incredible. Friday we loaded up the ute, latched on the boat and headed for Lake Tinaroo, a little over an hours drive inland. Mango and avocado fields lined the roads as we past through the rainforest atmosphere into the wide open counry. Upon arrival Daniel allready had the whole camp set up and ready for enjoyment. What's there to do when everything's allready done?. . .crack some coldies and light up the camp fire! And that we did, all weekend long. I woke up with the sun for coffee and early morning ski sessions, and literally played on the water from sunrise to sunset. Evenings were a sight to see, sitting around the fire drinking, listening to acoustic tunes and stories. The Aboriginal superstitions and travel tales were my favorite topics. I need to read up on my astronomy though, because there were stars upon stars upon stars most of which I couldn't identify. It's funny how you can feel so small and yet so liberated in the same moment. Saturday night we saw satellites in orbit, sailing through the sky and then slowly disappearing.I made myself stay up to watch the moon rise, even though I was exhausted from a full day of wakeboarding, I wasn't about to miss out on it. I'm beyond blessed to have such good people in my life! I like to wonder off alone sometimes, because this is when I can really evaluate the amazing place im in. This all becomes real again, its easy to get caught up in wonderful situations but this gives me time to take a step back and truely appreciate everything that surrounds me.
"All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware", oh so true.
