Blackwater, Rotation 2 of 5, Day 3 of 11...

Normally I'd be happily analysing statistics from my runs, but the main focus seems to be watching the days tick off until the next break.

I've just arrived back to site after my first long weekend break back to Sydney. Excellent to see my girls and the rest of the family, but just not enough time.

I also had 2 days in Rockhampton doing some inductions. I didn't make too much effort to explore Rocky but from what I saw on the map and from a couple of drives around (trying to find some decent food) there's not much to it. Oh, apart from being "The Beef Capital of Australia". I wonder if the Big Mac had local ingredients? It tasted the same as anywhere else!

Fortunately, I'm back to Sydney again this weekend, as we have some friends coming back from Singapore for a few days (hello, if you're reading, see you in The Orient on Friday). Just a flying visit: fly out of here Friday lunchtime and leave to travel back Sunday evening.

So no running for a few days. Hopefully once I get settled into a routine here - I can follow some sort of programme again. It's not like there's much else to do!

I've been trying to post some MotionBased screen shots to my previous posts from Blackwater, but no luck so far. I also got some Google Earth shots too, but I forgot to transfer them to my office computer! I was trying to record where I'm based. I'll try that later too.
