We have just returned from Tasmania.... wow... what a truly awesome place! If earth can be this beautiful I just cannot wait to see what heaven is like! We are spending a few days in Adelaide for some healing services here. These few weeks have been so great, though I must admit I do miss being in Malta for in this great time of change!!
The first pic is one taken from the room we were staying at in Tasmania and the second is Dr John and myself in Lorne (Victoria, Australia).
Tomorrow we leave for Tasmania for an intense 4 day programme, so we made the most of today feasting on some exotic Chinese food!! I actually ate Chicken feet today.... not legs, but feet!! Awesome!! Click Here... (Warning!!! Not for the weak hearted!!)
Finally... a computer ... with Internet access!! So... the Melbourne conference was an awesome experience - I'm so full of enthusiasm at the moment! After the conference we did some sight-seeing which peaked today with our visit to the Melbourne zoo. Some incredible animals there. We leave for Tasmania this Thursday for a jam-packed program! Fantastic!! Catcha' l8r!!!
Hey!! I finally got a few minutes to check my emails and post something here from the hotel lobby here in Melbourne. It has been a good 2 days of sightseeing. Unbelievable, I never thought I would become a tour-guide here, but that's what I've been doing there last 24 hours.... Tomorrow I'll be renting a car to take my Maltese friends to Bendigo - the place where I've been living over the past 5 months!! 1st Conference begins Monday;) Till next time!!!!
Let me introduce you to my bicycle!! This $5 faithful vehicle is a true friend.... cars have come and gone but she remains - facing hours of sun, moments of rain this bike is now the means of transport to get me around Bendigo!! How poetic;)
It’s amazing – this city seems to go to sleep in January. It is so quiet around the parish at the moment as many people travel to the beach during this summer period. I went to give communion to the sick this morning, caught up with some emails, washed my clothes and prayed in the afternoon, and then visited the hospital in the evening. Tomorrow I’ll be going to the bush to play at some of the masses there.
4 months since I arrived here in Bendigo, and today was the first time I went site seeing around the city. I went into a closed-down gold-mine (which are over 450 meters deep – enough to fit 2 sky-scrapers... miners used to have it so bad!)… I actually found 2 small pieces of gold! Then to the local art gallery, then treated myself to a sauna and a swim at the local swimming pool. After that I met a friend to do some recording in his studio! A full day!!! And I am ready to go to sleep!!!
I'm back!! Just drove 3 hours from the beach house where I have been relaxing over the last week. I read a whole book!!! I swam, ate, prayed, walked over 6km a day and enjoyed some good company. So revitalizing! Here are some photos!
