Dolphins & Blue Tongues

DSCN2985runrun6run11run7run9run2run8run5

We woke up in a decent time this Saturday morning, and decided that we should head out for a walk or so before the storm arrives and leave us wet for a couple of days. We headed to the coast in our workout gear, with a power walk and maybe some squats in mind. However, in the car I (Denise) get a sudden burst of energy and the thought of a run hits me. I share this thought out loud, and the look of horror on Amanda’s face was just priceless. She seldom minds a run but she doesn’t like the sudden change of plans when it comes to such activities. Nonetheless, we set out on our 5k run, which we quickly regret as it has been a while since last time. Luckily we’re a pair of tough nuts, stubborn to the bone, so we drag ourselves the 5k and attempt on what probably looked like a pretty pathetic last 100m spurt. Very pleased with ourselves, we head home to feast on this delicious sallad and smoothie, after a pit stop at the bottleo to pick up some red wine for the night.

Ps. The title is inspired by what could have been a tragic accident for a blue tongue lizard, who almost got crushed by me, as I was too busy dragging my heavy exhausted body forward while looking at the dolphins. Poor guy.

And then the day came which we all had ignored and put out of our minds for the last couple of weeks, the last day before Hanna went back home to Sweden. It had been like a dream to be here all four of us, living together in paradise, like we girls had planned since we were only 12 years old. As most good things in life it has to come to an end at some point, and now a new chapter begins for all of us. The time we have had here together has been truly amazing. Thank you Hanna for coming down under to be a part of our little family! We loved having you here, and miss you already! We hope to see you again soon, maybe back in Sweden or somewhere else in the world… Until next time, lots of LOVE!!
