A day in the mountains...


Another marvellous weekend is in the making! The Tourist flew back from Melbourne late yesterday - a flurry of texts and a phone call later, we'd organized to meet up for dinner. I went out straight from work with Jacqui, John (the Risk Executive I snogged on Valentine's night), Dan and a couple of Jacqui's friends to the Royal George for a couple of drinks. That done, Dan and I left them and wandered up to TT's hotel room where he had a bottle of vodka and some mixers and had a couple of relaxed drinks on his balcony. By this stage, it was about 9pm and we were hungry. So we grabbed a cab and found ourselves some food and thus sated, hit Palms. We were in a dancing mood and the music at Palms was just perfect for that! So it ended up being quite a late and reasonably alcoholic evening, but lots of fun! I just felt bad putting Dan into a cab to Manly where he lives - I was really hoping he'd pick up!

Dragged ourselves out of bed around 10am this morning as I'd offered to drive TT up to the Blue Mountains for the day. Neither of us really felt like getting out of bed, but his time left in Sydney is limited and there were touristy things that needed to be done! Once we were up and out, it was fine.

The mountains were sensational...there was plenty of blue sky with lovely fluffy white clouds. The cliffs around Katoomba were gloriously garish in their colour; the Scenic Railway suitably suprised (and impressed) TT with its steepness, and lots of pics ensued! It was just a FUN day, spent in the company of a lovely man who's fast becoming a friend! The fact that he's HOT is just the icing on the cake!

He had already arranged to see one of his cousins tonight - going to a BBQ at the cousin's place - and so I dropped him off at his hotel around 6.30pm and came home. I was smashed! Had a nanna nap and have just had dinner, watched a DVD and am now about to hit the sack.

Tomorrow, who knows. Maybe Manly or Bondi beach. Maybe Taronga Zoo. I don't really care - I'm just enjoying him whatever we do!
