A Rainbow Beach Wedding

After a good start at our travels, we headed home to Australia for Anita's sister's wedding, held at Rainbow Beach. The wedding was fantastic - great location, beautiful bride, and fantastic weather (after a wild rainy start to the morning).
Then after a few very relaxing and enjoyable days at Rainbow Beach and Brisbane, we headed north to Koah/Cairns for some more well deserved warm weather. This was a pretty busy pit stop - in about 5 days we crammed in a stint of crabbing off the esplanade, some NRL test match action, a jam session with the Loaded Dice, accountant appointments, random shopping and repacking of the total sum of our Australian possessions (9 boxes, 11 guitars and a saddle). Then after a welcome exchange of winter woolies for summer singlets, we hoppped - somewhat reluctantly - back on the plane for another screaming-baby-and-uncomfortable-seat-type long haul flight to London. We're currently in Italy sampling plenty of the classic dishes... more on that in the next post.
