Do you like my photo? I took it sunday 25th Feb. We were fishing on some rocks near where we live in Western Australia. I had just got the themos flask of tea and my camera - JUST in case. I put the things down and looked into the water to see this stingray gliding along the rocks, about 4 inches below the surface.

I have travel on my mind as I am organising a holiday to the Cook Islands and New Zealand in May. The blog prompt today is so appropriate -" What's your favorite way to travel? Car, plane, train, boat? What do you do while you're traveling?" In Western Australia there are such vast distances from the east coast of Australia that flying is the most often used. I love flying but get bored - I read for a while until the in flight moveie comes on. If I am travelling on long flights overseas I usually take a tablet to make me sleepy so I can get some sleep. I learnt this after being on a plane for 20 hours and only getting 2 hours sleep. On the next leg home I fell asleep almost in my meal.

If we are driving any distance (usually more than 2 hours) I put on '60's CD's and guess who is singing. Usually my husband gets all the names right. I cant read while he is driving and NEVER can sleep. We used to drive 17 hours non stop to go camping at a place called Karratha, 1700 kms north of Perth. My husband would snore so easily while I drove from midnight to dawn. Trouble was I could never catch up on that sleep. I'm sure one time I saw weird lights - or maybe I was just tired. LOL.

By the way I have some new kits in the store at The Scrapping Garden. - 10% off until end of the month.
