Time to go back to work.

Sadly, today is my last day in Blairgowrie. The past few days spent here since the end of the AUS titles have been some of the most relaxing and enjoyable days in recent memory. For the most part I spent my time cycling, windsurfing, and just going to the beach, all against the beautiful backdrop provided by this beautiful place. Situated on the Monrington Peninsula, Blargowrie is on a thin spit with an ocean beach on one side and a clear water shallow beach on the other.The temperature has fluctated with in the thirties and for the most part the sun has been shining bright. In amongst the wonderful attributes of this place are two. deficiencies. FIrstly there are a massvie number of flies which seem to be attracted to the ears, nose, mouth and eyes. These flies are so bad that one laser sailor, Mike Kalin went so far as to go shopping for a mesh net to cover his head. Secondly, internet has been hard to come by. Most internet that I have found has been expensive, unreliable and heavily used. I have spoken much about the physical attributes of blairgowrie but possibly the best part of my experience here has been the attitude with which I and the guys I have been with have been living. I have seldom been amongst such relaxed guys haveing such a relaxed time and for this I thank you.

We spent the morning cleaning the house I've been staying at and I am now spending the avo at the site for the 29er/49er worlds. Soon the medal race for the 49ers should start and I hope to get on the water to catch the action. The boats are packed so tomorrow morning we'll pack the car and head out early to be in Brighton by 0830.

get set for the next post comming at you from MELBOURNE!
