"I must apologize for calling so late," said he, "and I must further beg you to be so unconventional as to allow me to leave your house presently by scrambling over your back garden wall.” - Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes)

Another blog post? Without 3 weeks having passed? 
What are this?!

Kit went to Port Arthur! 

Be prepared for pictures.



  

How charming and history-ful. Added bonus, the chums that Kit went with were kind enough to accommodate her interest in history, so she actually got a chance to read all the informative signs hung up around the place! Learning! Yeeeeessssssssss!

Almost half of the Honours kids were there.


This is Miss E. B., Miss K., Miss E. H., Mr Y., and Mr T.
They're a special brand of excellent.

The other half and a bit of the Honours kids are also excellent. But they had work commitments and/or deadly hangovers which prevented them adventuring to Port Arthur.


Photos were taken and poses were pulled.


Croquet was played. It turns out Kit is baus at that game. 
 


It's difficult to organise these photos. The template may need adjusting. Nah. Too much effort. Suffer at the poorly displayed photos! 


It was a generally fun day with a bunch of generally awesome people. 

Face stayed home and celebrated the fact that Kit has friends who are willing to travel the hour and a half to Port Arthur with her, thereby relieving him of the duty. But not really. He'll have to go one day. For the ghost tour. Mwa ha!

That will probably be Kit's final weekend of freedom for a while. She has a grant application assignment due on the 11th of August, and the Maria Island and Queensland trip between now and then. It's going to be a busy month of hard work, sobbing and grumpy demands for coffee. Added to that will be an attempt to fix Kit's sleep cycle. She stays up too late at night (case in point, it's now 12:28 am), which makes her sleepy the next day. So she has a nap. Usually under her desk at uni. Which then reduces the tired, so she stays up late again. It's a darn vicious cycle. But Kit just loves naps... So, so much.

Naps are probably the best thing ever.

Anyway. Look at the teeny tiny glasses that were on display at Port Arthur! 

They're simply adorable.  


That's it, y'all!

Love love. xx

  1. Drat! You know we nearly went to Port Arthur on the same day? Like we got all the way down there and we wouldnt have had time to go in before going back to the airport! We kept making stops the whole way there. But that fountain looks super pretty and I wish I had see it!
