I was lucky enough to blog on the 1st of June to herald in the first day of winter so I feel especially grateful to be blogging today to farewell this incredible season. I thought it might be a good opportunity to recap on some of the highlights and occasions that made winter so special....

This morning there was a real Spring feel in the air. Watching longingly from the walkway, as I deal with what has been a most stubborn flu, I couldn’t quite recall the name of the move but am sure it had something to do with an Archer and a dog but the rest escapes me. The...

Classic Manly sunrise.     Fifi’s 6am crew.   My favourite shot of the day.   Newbie Stewart in Ian’s hands.     Jo said, “you should see the jimble stings on my left arm”.     Petite Bianca corrected me , “..Simon, jimbles don’t bite they sting..”       Guess who can afford...

Sorry for the corny blog title, I was stuck for titles this morning… But we did welcome back Ian and Pauline, Martin and Jim (not a couple ;-)) from their cruise around Tahiti!! It was a cold, miserable morning but there were plenty of warm smiles down at B&B Central and the water was… calm,...

Lovely to be back in the Ocean – (after a stint in the mountains with blizzards and high winds.)     Water was a chilly 17.1 degrees. Air Temp about 12 degrees.   Wonderful light warmed us up, with a stunning sunrise.   Water was calm and clear.     Over at Shelly there was...

Your spine, the oldest part of your central nerve system, contains foundational neural networks that are constantly firing patterns of signature frequencies.  This music provides rhythms that allow your heartbeat, your breathing and basic movement including walking and swimming.
