Nice, Monacco and Dolceaqua

How slack am I? This time I'm not even providing a commentary. Just offering up pictures of glorious sunshine. Except for a few notes at the end.




I recently went to London and voted in the Australian embassy. At first it was a typical England experience - obviously they had some long queues at some points, then through the security screening...

But inside the beautiful building that houses the Australian Embassy (where they wouldn't let me take photos), rather aptly named Australia House, it was just like every other election I'd ever been too. Suddenly I was transported home again as I heard nothing but oz accents - there were even people handing out how to vote cards outside. I nearly hugged them.
