Finally home......

My last morning in Sydney saw me catching up with a cousin and heading out with Sonias crew also for breaky..............
This was heaven..........
OMG the food I have eaten this week............spanish, greek, korean, thai, pastries, cakes, BBQ's, amazing breakies..........so much different food I have loved it.............
beautiful beaches...........I hate the water and sand but love the view...........
the sun was glistening on the water.............
love driving thru the leafy expensive suburbs.....all except for this street the traffic was OMG nuts.............took me twice and long to get to the end of the freeway.............
seriously Sydney has development going on everywhere and the traffic is getting worse..............
once I got off the busy roads and onto the country roads the traffic was practically none..........love it that way........one of my favourite places to drive thru the Hunter Valley is near Jerrys Plains............the horse studs line the roads and they keep it mowed and neat and nice tree lines...........you really can't see the beauty so well in this pic but it is so pretty...............
I even had to stop for a very rare train..............it was really long............
gorgeous views all the way...........the country is amazing............it's why I live here and its forever changing..........
Stopped "Plough Inn to Cassilis" for coffee...........the roses on the side of the building were flowering beautifully...........
so nice to be home and back in my bed...........I have loved my week away and enjoyed checking out the city but give me the flies and dust any day over the traffic and busy people everywhere who have no time to even acknowledge you exist............
Catch you later......

You echo my thoughts exactly about the city and the traffic, nice to visit, but good to get back to the country. Loved your travel photos.

Susan said...

It was a lot of fun seeing the pics...give me the ocean any day - no flies & dust for this city chic...the traffic isn't so bad when you are used to it.

Melody said...

So glad you had fun. I'm lucky enough to live on the outer edges of Melbourne where the city and country meet...the best of both worlds.

Jo said...

I'm not much of a city and traffic person either. Now is your time to relax and enjoy

Cheryll said...

Great that you are back home safely and appreciating your country life. It sometimes does us good to go further afield to realise how great how regional or country lifestyle is. Lovely pics. JUst hope you have time to relax a bit.

Your week away did sound wonderful, but as you said, it is always nice to get home, away from the bustle.

Gorgeous pictures! I'll remind you how much you love the country next time you are bogged down on the road! Seriously though, you are very lucky to love the place you live!

Sonia said...

loved having you, and totally get you, traffic, city, open roads, country - we each enjoy the others backyards for a little while but home is home wherever the ❤️ is .

So glad you had a great time. I'm with you about city traffic. I live in a small town. If there are more than two cars in line at the stop sign I panic and swear I will move north! I hate sand too, but I surely love the water. Guess it is because I have lived on it all my life. Thanks for sharing.

Rose Marie said...

Ah .... there is no place like home! Glad you had a great visit, but also glad you are where your heart wants to be.

Maria said...

Pleased the weather has warmed up and I'm back to morning dips...t

Annie said...
