Christmas in the Pilbara

We personified the meaning of a 'quiet Christmas'. The words laidback and fuss-free come to mind as well. Santa found the boys no worries - he actually had a reccie here the week before just to check. And the flies apparently got an invite to someone else's party because they weren't around. You know, living here has slowed me down somewhat and I like it. I no longer feel in a rush to get anywhere, because the furthest place is 15 minutes drive away, and there's not a lot of choice so the decision making about lots of things is pretty easy. I feel really fortunate our house is airconditioned, but it is really nice in the shade with a breeze. Brisbane humidity sticks to you but the Pilbara desert heat brushes off your skin with a breeze. And you do make your own fun, as you may gather with the slide show below. Little things become big things that you get a lot more out of. Like a Boxing Day trip in the Pilchard, and our housemate Californian Sarah nabs a shark! Who would've thought? Stay tuned for the Tassie Update. See ya. Christmas in the Pilbara on PhotoPeach
