I have been a busy little beaver in the past few weeks, so apologies for missing my post last week – I was taking some time out to enjoy a well-earned rest before starting work again. But during my holiday I went all over, from Victoria to Queensland and then back to NSW, including aContinue reading “Paperbark Forest Boardwalk, Agnes Water”

Arthur’s Seat
Following on from my post last week, Arthur’s Seat is another place that I revisited recently after spending many hours there growing up. It is a lovely area that has so much to offer, from beautiful gardens and lovely walks to gondola rides (or a chairlift as it was when I was growing up). ItContinue reading “Arthur’s Seat”
Cape Schanck Rock Pools
In my previous post I mentioned that I have been spending time with my family and going adventuring with them. So in the coming weeks I thought I would share some of my experiences of our adventures with you. I spent some of my childhood years growing up on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria. AndContinue reading “Cape Schanck Rock Pools”
Christmas 2021
Today’s post is going to be a short one! I just wanted to check in to say ‘hi’ and ‘Merry Christmas!’ For many of us Christmas is a busy time of year (it certainly has been for me this year!). I know that I can tend to get caught up in the many traditions andContinue reading “Christmas 2021”
Venturing Out Again
It has been a long six months of lockdowns and restrictions in Sydney, but things are starting to change! Slowly, everything is opening back up, which also means that exploring and adventuring are an option again. And I am SO excited! For the first time since I started my blog, I am actually able toContinue reading “Venturing Out Again”
Breakfast at the Top of the Yellow Arrow
I have written in previous posts about my experience walking the Green Arrow track in Cairns, so today we are moving on to the Yellow Arrow track! This walk is located in the Mt Whitfield Conservational Park and is 1.9km long with a steady uphill climb. When I lived in the area I had seenContinue reading “Breakfast at the Top of the Yellow Arrow”
Shades of Green
“What’s your favourite colour?” When I was growing up, my answer to this question changed constantly. It would depend on many different things such as how I was feeling at the time, who was around me and what colours they liked, and what colours I could see at that specific moment. But for many yearsContinue reading “Shades of Green”
Palona Cave, Royal National Park
I have done a few walks in the Royal National Park near Sydney and I have really enjoyed each one of them, although they were all quite different! I have done a walk along the beach and a forest circuit, but the most recent one I did was to Palona Cave. I found out aboutContinue reading “Palona Cave, Royal National Park”
The Beauty of Creation
We live in a world that is full of so much beauty, particularly in nature – the majesty of the mountains… the elegance of a swan gliding across a lake. I have always loved getting out and exploring – seeing new things and enjoying God’s creation. But I can sometimes forget to do this, particularlyContinue reading “The Beauty of Creation”
Memories while Adventuring
Have you ever had a conversation with someone and then you look back and remember vividly what you were talking about and where you were? For example, you are going on a hike and you remember exactly what you were talking about when you got to a particular lookout, or when you stopped to enjoyContinue reading “Memories while Adventuring”
