photos

ok, well, i started with the photos of eileen and me, but they are now half-way down the page and i couldn't be bothered to try and fix them, so deal with it! ha. this first photo is hmm, well, a nice group of people having a harmless picnic in the park in bucharest on a sunny day (or so we thought!!!) ahhh, i love pumas. there were some english guys staying in our hostel in brasov and one of them had just the right sized feet and these beautiful pumas. well, one night he was heaps drunk and i decided i was going to swap shoes with him for good. although i couldn't actually bring myself to do it. so i ended up with my old brown ones and he kept his aussie coloured ones.
the thinkers... or should i say the stoics. tori, me and kath (tori's egypt travel buddee) in a stoa in the acropolis. AMAZING place really. the history (and a great insight to it having a history buff there to tell me stories about Nike and Athena and other greek gods, put things into perspective. cheers tori). just amazing
me looking out over Dracula's home country in Transylvannia. the countryside here is beautiful. i would love to have spent a few weeks just exploring the mountains and walking tracks, but alas, it wasn't to be.

me whispering secrets to a funny old man in the streets of plovdiv. i can't remember what he is doing there, but he is one person who was willing to put up with my stories.
well, this is me and Eileen in Leeds, (thanks to her for looking after me for a night). it was great to see her again. and below is me and matt in a pub in Leeds (taken by schelle, thanks schelle) cheers to another good part of a great weekend away. it was a very funky pub just near the main street in leeds.
below is me being an olympian, well, an Ancient Olympian in the stadium at Olympus. Now, that was a great place to visit. (near my right hand you can see the tunnel the olympians used to go through to the stadium.) oh and look at the sunny day, ahhh, to have the warm sunshine back again. it's not too bad at the moment, but not the greatest either. still sunny, but quite cool.

ahhh, yes, the cow... well, if you use your imagination you can kind of see a cow!!!

and well, Geoff, don't know what you are doing buddy!?? singing hard to chisels or something?? but the rest of us are cheesy at the walkabout (of course) in Temple. Me, schelle, matty, geoff and richard (their friend). oh and schelle and i are wearing our new Primark tops. Man, we LOVE that shop! go Primark.

well, that is enough for the moment. don't know what will come next time, but until then, ENJOY!

love to you all

new quote i like from a book i read (who'd have thought i would be a reader??)

'kids think with their brains cracked wide open; becoming an adult,
I've decided, is only sewing it shut.'
