Yesterday I saw my second ever AFL game- the relaxed final between Port and Geelong.
Our friends (from Australind!) Scott and Alison and their boys live on Sakhalin, working in the oil and gas industry here. They have a lovely home, and cable TV! So Scott gathered all the Aussie men from the neighbourhood to watch the game together.
It was also Alison's birthday. So they invited all 6 of us to spend the night and celebrate life in a very Australian way.
It felt like all of our birthdays.
We were laughing about it together-
our eyes wide, talking excitedly about visiting Scott and Alison, where we watched a game of footy, saw some Rage, listened to the new Missy Higgins album, ate 'real' sausages, home made sausage rolls, real BBQ sauce, and egg and bacon and cheese toasted sandwiches.
How does this sound to you guys at home? Exotic? Exciting?
It's the small things in life.
