Fridays Fabulous 5 #54

Another week of links.  So lets get started.

• Here I live in New Zealand and here are 69 facts about the country I live in.
• I just love this breast cancer video.  Very emotional and a great reminder as my mother is a survivor of breast cancer making me more at risk.  So here is the I Touch Myself Project.
• For those that like challenges here is Whats on your desk?
• What about writing a poem a day.  I am in awe.  Take a look at this artists art journalling too.
• Then if you love your own handwriting you might like to go this post and then follow the link.

There you have it for this week.

Did I really live there?

It is hard to believe that from 2000 until 2006 we lived in Brunei.  This is not a postcard. 

This photo was taken by us, looking out from The Empire Hotel, Brunei.  A 5 star (could be 6 star but does not serve alcohol) resort sitting on the shore of the South East China Sea.  Every  Sunday we would visit the water park here with our friends the Allcocks and spend the day.  Sometimes we would dress up and go out for a very posh dinner.  This sure was a western style treat in Brunei.  We loved every moment of our time there.  Sometimes I just have to pinch myself to help me remember that this was our reality back then.

Memories like this deserve to be part of an album.  So I thought I would slowly try and work my way through the photos I have and finally get this done.
