Without further adieu Salty Skinned Honeys x Gloria x day 10.
One thing I want to shout out quickly, I wrote a little memior of my favourite moments at work that I forgot to publish before leaving. Would you please join me in a moment of silence for the titled "Can You Dust The Sofa"
*uno momento silencio*
Lest we forget. which is a perfect segue to the first 2 days of the roadie...
Lest we forgot:
1. How to drive manual. Practice makes perfect
2. To take corners slowly
3. To turn the gass off so it doesnt leak out everywhere!
4. How simply beautiful a stary sky is at night after living in the city for the past 6 months.
Oh yes I should introduce by name each Salty Skinned Honey. In no particular order:
Sam- french lady
Tadhg- only boy in the world
Me- entertainment
Kate- driver extraordinaire !
First nights dinner by Chef Tadhg. Fish curry served with rice. Bon appetite! Cutesie beach community, amazing sunset, our second camp site was pimping. The community kitchen/louge was fully equipt. Surround sound plasma tv, a magic bullet for a morning smoothie and a cockroach the size of small rat.
Made Bolognese. Roach free.
Day 4 we made it to.. Bryon Bay!
Day 4 we made it to.. Bryon Bay!
Very peacefull, swavy, beachy melodic rhythm in the air. (Im trying not to use the word hippie) This is where perhaps by the powers of devine intervention; four weary eyed , sweaty, campsite-less honeys stumbled towards the greyhound kiosk, in seek of knowledge about where to park for sleeping that night. We ended up melting in the palms of a travel guru. He pulled out the big map, the photo albums , the charming smile.. we ended up replanning our whole trip.
For better and for worse. I'll save the details for my next post because our first excursion is but 3 days away now!!
We spent two nights in Byron than chugged on to the Gold Coast. By this time the sun burns are out and the bras are off. It's a hot mess and our first inside joke is born. Six socks, one shoe , a pair of womens panties. An ode to Miami Beach, Surfers Paradise.
From there we did Brisbane, Elimbah, Sunshine Coast and now Noosa! Birth rate of induendoes is on the rise and we've got nicknames: Double T and Double F and of course Salty Skinned Honeys. The van has carried us in her womb so naturaly we've come to know this mama as... Gloria.
10 days in and we are loved. We are well fed and showered. Someone tell our Mothers. Xx Pray that during the next 20 we can still confidently call our mothers saying the same thing.
Halleluja.
She's claimed territory ("Gloria's Nest" Elimbah QLS. 27.0150°S, 152.9470° E) Scalled mountains whilst we aided heartbreak to the man of the tribe and manage to stay sain cleaning up after him.
