back

landed Sunday morning. Blake surprised me at the arrival gate. we swam after catching the train up the coast. thai for dinner on the jetty on the lake. long overdue time spent. I’ve missed him so very much.

Monday was a sleep in. I walked with Blake on his work break. we listened to music in the evening, watching some tv. I trained back to Sydney the next morning, surprising my friends back at Stucco. nothing much has changed. it’s wonderful to be with them again. Thai La Onglunch special in Camperdown park with Mia, Callum, Nic, Leo and Jeff. GM in the evening, sleepover with Bip updated each other on what’s happened in the time between seeing each other.

coffee with Bip, Jeff, Mitch, Leo and Ella at One Another this morning. beach trip with Callum, Nic and Bip. Gordon’s Bay. cold water. quality time with some of those dearest to me. I’ve missed them a lot, and I’m now remembering how lucky I am to know their friendship.

ramen dinner with the gang before a movie.

it’s a little like I never left. tired from all the socialising I think. Europe feels another life away. strange. there will always be something to miss. <<
