The warm sun on my face that is a nice change of pace after the long cold wet weather we had been enduring back home. The pool at this Brisbane boutique hotels is the perfect place to soak up some of the suns rays and thaw out my aching bones. baking in the sun feels so good after not seeing much of the sun if at all over the past several weeks. Winters always seem so long and drawn out so heading to where it is summer while winter at home only makes sense to me! Getting away from work and the routine of being at home I can mindlessly lay here in the sun feeling the heat build up in my body. Rolling over I even to the heat on the other side of my body and then when I get just warm enough I roll off into the cool pool water. This process is repeated over and over as if I have a need to practice it this routine to perfection. With nothing more on my mind I am happy to lay here, following my breath and feeling the sun. This much needed winter break from the deprivation of light and warmth is welcomed. The doing nothing but being pampered by hotel staff is a choice instead of the usual parade of adventures, site seeing and activities. Perhaps this is a testament to my age but time to be quiet is more important than time to be active for me any more. Brisbane offers this relaxed atmosphere with plenty to do if you want to from early in the morning right through to late in the evening. I think tomorrow adventure will be doing the same as today only on the beach by the ocean instead of the pool.
