Hammock season is the best season

Up early to get to the airport so had to leave these two like this. Like father, like son I guess

I have never felt tall in all of my 12 years living in the Netherlands, until last night.

Thankfully no hail, but I've never seen this much lightning before. It's just constant.

Ermagherd, it me!

Bought myself a wee 'well-done-on-no-longer-being-unemployed-after-nine-months-of-hell' present, and she's so pretty.

Such a nice day out at Fletcher Moss in Didsbury

Doggies do Didsbury

I promise I did more than twirl. Not a fan of the song originally, but ended up really enjoying this choreo.

Sometimes you just need to twirl

Even though I read the caption, I was NOT expecting that!!!

I said what I said

Seeing them fish for sardines in Greece in #RaceAcrossTheWorld is making me want to go back to Moalboal in the Philippines for the 'sardine run'. One of the best things I've ever seen.

There is nothing better as a defender in #netball than getting a rejection on a shot at goal. Also not a bad jump height for someone both in the 70s. The ol' geezer's still got it it seems.

Right? She eventually forgave me.

96 hours, 2 death-defying taxi journeys with unhinged drivers, and 7 trips to the airplane bathroom due to Lord only knows what happened to my stomach just after take-off later, it was all worth it for this.

One last swim among the sardines before we say goodbye to the Philippines.

One final 90-minute foot spa and massage for €13. Gonna really miss these!

I've really enjoyed learning to snorkel during this month away. I still get a little panicky sometimes, but I've seen a lot of improvement from only managing a few minutes here and there at the beginning to now comfortably being out for 45-60 minutes at a time.

Had a wee swim with this lil guy

Last full day in the Philippines. Sad to leave such a wonderful country, but looking forward to being home with my little family on Sunday.

Awesome day of hiking Lugsangan Peak and Osmeña Peak in the Philippines

The guide said "be sexy", so, um, yeah, this is what you get!

I bought a decorative bowl to bring home as a souvenir and then realised it works way better as a water bowl for all the thirsty stray dogs.

Trying to not look like I'm turning 47 this year by wearing bball clothes

Siquijor has been a lot of fun. A small island with a big heart.

Trying to ensure every stray dog I see in this heat gets some fresh water. Poor babies are so thirsty.

So Many Boobies

Ignore TLC

Korean family covered head to toe in the pool. Me? Not so much (but slathered in Factor 50)
