The time has come..



For me to face my flying fears once again. We are off to Sydney and the Blue Mountains, super excited to see our Sydney famille.. it's just the flying bit 😱 I leave you with three different versions of a shot taken in the city on Saturday evening. The umbrellas adorning London Court as part of the winter festivities in the city. Above with just a leeetle tweak and below as it came out of the camera..


... and here reflecting the sate of my mind :) a mish-mash of panic three shots. Look after yourselves until I get back, see you on Saturday the 20th for Weekend Reflections. Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..

  5. Enjoy your trip Grace.
    I hate flying commercial flights. At least the 737Max is still grounded.
    Besides Australia has Qantas -- Safest airline in the world. The only airline without a single major incident.

  27. I love your third shot. Have a wonderful trip. Not sure when you are visiting the mountains but yesterday was freezing. We will be escaping back to Kandos just as soon as we get through a couple of medical appointments in the city.

    I guess you have departed by now. I am so sorry about your fear of flying. Since you live where you do, I guess your choices of transportation are limited. Enjoy your loved ones. Janey
