🍿 My first Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF) viewing was Viet and Nam (2024) ★★½
I do love a dimly lit little bar with knowledgeable bartenders who make a great drink. The blend of the three whiskies (Japanese/Scotch/Australian) in my first was almost sinful and the (can’t label it) bourbon and gin mix in my second most definitely was. A surprising taste I wasn’t expecting.
Interrupting my holiday to help out at graduation ceremonies. Today’s badge was made by one of the casual staff. He does it as a hobby/small sideline.
I haven’t worn a watch this week while I’ve been on holidays and also turned off most notifications on my phone. It’s been so good to disconnect.
I don’t think winter is done with Brisbane yet but it’s nice for now to have 21°c at 4:30pm and being able to walk along the river in shorts and long sleeve T-shirt.

Made a list of all the things I want to get done around home next week so I don’t get to the end of my holiday in a few weeks and start trying to do everything in two days. Let’s see how I go 🤷🏻♂️
Thought I’d lay on the bed and read for a while but it’s hard to focus when you’re being stared at.
