Weekend.

At House on a Hill, we have many creepy crawlies. More often than not, they are huntsman spiders. On this particular occasion, we were graced with this huge huntsman spider (spider-phobics hold onto your seats!). It was bigger than my outspread hand for sure. To soften the blow, you'll see some cute little flowers I picked from a big bushy weed outside the front gate. 







On Saturday we headed to Ballina in northern NSW for a little getaway. Ballina is such a sleepy, quiet and not-much-to-do kind of town. Suits me just great I say - I've been flat out lately. The view was of the river which I thought was nice. A little different to the typical.





Much to J's dismay, I insisted we go for a walk to have a look around at what was going on around Ballina. This is Ballina Manor, a heritage listed property which plays host to a boutique hotel. I thought it was just gorgeous - it seems it has been restored very well.




On Sunday after devouring a nice hearty breakfast at one of the local cafes, we set out for the Gold Coast via Lennox Head and Byron Bay. Fell in love with Lennox Head along the way.





Finished off the weekend by watching Flight. I think it is a good movie and worth a watch. It just so happens that I will be flying tomorrow. Perhaps a good idea you don't follow suit - watch it on another day.
