Day 12 of 365 photos ;-)

Well today's photo was easy to choose... Flew from Antwerp to near Brussels (with nico) and did circuits over a bike race that was going on... Forgot how boat like airships are off the ground... I now know why I always invert the controls on PS3 games... It's more natural ;-)





In the important seat!!!

Good times ;-)

Not sure why but whenever I'm driving over here in Belgium, I feel like I need a drink of water!!!

Well not the most exciting photo today, however it is one that means a fair bit to me... My last pair of leather quiksilver thongs have finally gone to a better place and needed replacing and luckily I found an even comfier pair of Reefs so if I gave to wear something on my feet outside work I can!

Lost day!!!

Just woke up and didn't know what time it was... Could have been a strange sunrise or a sunset!!! My watch didn't help me only looking at my iPhone made me realise I had slept for 14 hours...

Gonna have to hope I see something worth taking a photo of in the next hour and a half for my pic of the day Haha...

Quick check in ;-)

Well almost caught up with myself back on Airships...

It's like I was never away, let alone 10years away!

I've not been happier in so long I can't even remember when it was. Life is good and even the little things that might not go the right way are just that, little things.

I've come to realise that not a lot really matters, that is as long as the ones you love and yourself are healthy and basically ok then everything else just works out anyway and most things really don't affect that much. Except your mind that is...

Which I guess is the point I'm rambling on about, my heads in a very nice warm happy place and I can see crystal clear again. I can see what is important and what is not. I honestly feel peace most of the time and even when I don't, I catch myself quickly and then have it again ;-)

Being back on the road traveling is amazing and I am taking it all in this time. I actually spend most of my time in the present and not the past or future. Which would help even if I wasn't lucky enough to have got back on Airships... I am though so it's supercool...

I hope to start writing my random thoughts and posting pics and vids on here a lot more frequently as I see it as a diary/journal and something to look back on as well as letting the few loved ones who stumble across it updated on my life ;-)





Some of the standard crazy Dutch art... It's everywhere, dotted in random places ;-)

Anyhows Ttfn ;-)
