Through My Lens – Mt Coot-tha and Southbank Parklands

As part of my routine implementation, I am hoping to get back into my weekly “Through My Lens” posts out and about in Australia.
As you know, last week I went away for the weekend with the Son and my DIL beginning the weekend at the unearthly hour of 3.30am in order to catch the sunrise over Brisbane at 5.11am. We missed the beginning of the sunrise by about 2 minutes but we were there to watch it rise higher. If you missed those photos, you can find them here.

Sunrise in Brisbane

My weekend began at 3.15am on Saturday morning when i woke up and then wouldn’t allow myself to go back to sleep in case I slept in past my 3.45am alarm.
The son and my DIL were picking me up at 4am so we could travel into Brisbane to the top of Mt Coot-tha to see the sunrise.

Bringing back the Joy!

Little Miss Grumpy Pants is now a Tween 🙂

The other day I asked my friend “Mr Google” (or it could be Mrs Google – after all we women know everything!!) a question. “Show me how to find joy”. Seriously, that was my search term. So if that showed up in anyone’s stats, it was probably me! 🙂

Sharing the Beautiful Things

There is an ad on TV  right now by Twinings. It talks about hiding the beautiful things away for a special occasion and encourages us to stop waiting for the special occasion to arrive and use those things now.
