Are we there yet?

Hellohello everyone.

I am back from my crazy adventures/arduous paperwork in Orange/Manildra.

It is currently 1.30. I arrived home at about 20 mins ago, and we left our lodge/motel/apartment at 10am. When I got home, I had to check the clock properly to be sure it only took us 3 hours to get back from Orange.

I always say the returning journey feels shorter, BUT NOT THIS MUCH SHORTER?!

I keep thinking to myself- how did this happen? It must have been a combination of:

  • speeding in the country, and also Castle Hill/ Baulko
  • Lack of breaks taken, throwing aside "stop, revive, survive"
  • my lack of consciousness (yes, I was asleep for the ENTIRE trip- lucky me)
Hopefully this post won't extend to a super long monologue because I want to continue napping for a bit ;D But all in all, I think Orange was a lovely place to go to for work. I regret saying all this crap about Orange/Manildra before, because I actually had a really good time.  (Plus they had really good breakfast/hatted restaurants there). But of course, I'm glad to be home. A bit bummed I JUST missed out on amazing race. :(

Anyway- hope you all have a lovely weekend!  (I'll be sampling the wine I brought back from the wine country ;)

4 screams of joy:

hi chris!
Orange has some really good quality wine, and it;s just the scenery that's really nice. I'd spend the day driving around town and neighbouring small country towns. I'd visit the vineyards and orchards during spring because they're super pretty and have lots of history :)

I didn't end up eating at Lotti Redini because it was alot over the company budget, but I ended up going to Ceello Bistro which was really nice!

Wines: Sauvignon Blanc for desserts and Chardonnay. I'm not a big fan of red wine
