Holiday, Day 2: A Trip and a Challenge

October 6th, 2006

The girls slept well, which is great seeing there is a loss of ½ hr when crossing the border west. I, on the other hand was up bright and early trying to nail my talk for this Saturday night in Melbourne (Jumpstart Concert ref: www.unoh.typepad.com/wild). As it stands I have a lot of work to do!

We went to Glenelg to a place that used to be called “

Magic

Mountain

”, it must have taken a Magic Mushroom or something as it is now triple in size and quite garish! Dropped off my sister Shobie and team mate Lisa Paxton at the catholic bookshop and, due to having two children sleeping in the car I finished reading:

Quarterly Essay: Voting for Jesus (Christianity and Politics in

Australia

) by A. Lohrey, 2006.

That’s where I got totally blown away! Read the next post if you are interested!
