Vacation planning
Bonjour mi amore,
We are unpacking, cleaning, washing and its been crazy around the house today. At the same time we are trying to plan our vacation. First we wanted to road trip to the great barrier reefs, then we thought maybe we should fly and visit my friends Astrid & Gaell whom lives in Ho Chi Min City. And yesterday Ambros’s brother told me we should go to Vanuatu Island because apparently their cousin own a resort over there…
I really want to show Ambrose Vietnam, he will definitely love it, But they have rainy season apparently and there is no surf there. Just texted Astrid and according to them its not alot of rain at all, so still don’t know what to do, where to go!?? I would love to see the great barrier reefs before they destroy it though! haha lovely problems we have.Found these old pictures from our 4 weeks in Singapore and Vietnam. And Vietnam was one of my favorite places ever for sure.

Goodbye Mudgee, Hello Sydney
Aaaannnnddddd we move again! We woke up early Saturday morning after Friday nights festivities and the plan was to move. But clearly we wanted to leave Mudgee our style…. So we spent a couple of hours in bed and then walk to into town to pick up the car. Stopped by the weekend market before driving to The Pumphouse for breakfast at this beautiful location.
Went back for a drive, had take away Thai food picnic by the river and then we finally picked up some coffees and went back home to start packing. But we actually did good. A couple of hours packing, stess-selling stuff on Mudgee Buy/Swap/Sell and I think by 6pm we were on the road to the coast with Golden Beauty filled to the max. Both me and Ambrose have moved so many times that I guess we know how to do this quickly by now.This morning I woke up in Ambrose parents house where we will be staying while searching for our own house.
Ambrose and his dad had to drive back to Mudgee to get the last of our stuff. I will start cleaning up/ unpacking and then Leonard and Nick are picking me up for lunch at Gnostic.

town planners´ Farwell dinner
On Friday night was Ambros’s farewell dinner. It was such a great night and we all had so much fun.I met some of them before but had no idea they were such fun group! Love to see how much his friends and colleges values and appreciates him. They had small celebration for him from morning, throughout the day and finishing with this dinner and drinks afterwards. Well deserved celebration.

Surfer hospital
They all though I was such a nerd, and usually I don’t care about these stuff but I though it was really exciting to walk in to this place where they fix surfboards. Maybe its exciting because we don’t have this back in Sweden. I’m getting my own surfboard as well. Just got to recover my neck first….

Celebrating Xavier’s first birthday
This beautiful family. Daniel, Rachel and little Xavier – the birthday boy
A jumping castle – very popular with the kids. And adults as well. I’m surprised we did not brake it actually.
hahah we cant stop laughing seeing this. He looks like a piece of dough ready to become a pizza or something.
Seriously. How damn cute can one get!?
I love this picture of Ambrose. Makes me smile every time I see how happy he looks in this picture. Mi Amore <3
Yesterday was Xavier’s 1st birthday. Daniel and Rachel had a big BBQ at their house. So great to see everyone again 🙂 The best part was seeing Xavier having his birthday cake. He never had sugar before and he went from super tired to all excited, laughing, trying to talk and playing in the giant jumping castle. We left back to Mudgee straight after the party. Our last week in Mudgee…. And like always the sky was amazing. The sky is always amazing in Australia. ________________________________________

Jet lagged
Thought I beat this Jet lagging nonsense this time but nope! It 4:18 in the morning and I haven’t been able to sleep anything. Although last night we did go to bed at 7PM and woke up the next day at 11AM so probably not the best decision….
Was messaging with Hanie and Jasmin and they advised me to get up and do something instead of just laying in bed tossing around. So having tea and looking at some pictures from today. After driving the bbq to Daniel and Rachels house we had brunch with Dad and Anastasia at The Secret Cafe. Their surf & Turf was actually really nice but huge.
Before heading back we went to check the surf ( well Ambrose checked it )
Lenonard and Nick were at the house when we came back so we decided last minute to go to Sushi train and the movies with them. Apparently there is a disco ice rink next door to the movies that Ambrose wants us to go to but they were thank God about to close. Being jet lagged and doing activities is exhausting. Such an 90´s looking place!________________________________________________________________

So much to tell about being back but we are about to go to dinner and the movies with Leonard soon so..here are at least some pictures from my fist day back. BEST breakfast just around the corner from the house and after we of course (!) went to see Xavier 🙂 He walked straight to me when he saw me which made me love him even more hahah.
Okey now off to see “Pets”

Crossing oceans
Dear Diary,
Every time I’m forgetting exactly how long this journey is! The plane left Arlanda at 6:30, then Düsseldorf ( Germany is really growing on my more and more ) and then Abu Dhabi. The best was that there was absolutely no line at customs in Sydney. They did lose my luggage though. So now Im at Ambrose parents home, waiting for them to bring my luggage._____________________________________________________________________________
