Panoramaramamania!

Ta-dah! Two updates in one week!! Are you feeling loved now?

I've decided I need to make a slightly more serious effort with this blog. Even though I'm busy, it's still the best way to stay in touch with you all en masse.

Below are a few more pics from The Paris Palace and one from Bilkent, the educational palace of Ankara, Turkey, and some say the entire Middle East. And while I think of it, perhaps I should explain why I call The Paris Palace The Paris Palace. The short story is, we live on Paris St and I'm a big fan of alliteration.

The longer story, and the story unknown the other of Palace's current residents, is that my house has always been known as the The Palace. From the original Precious Palace in Stanmore, to the Preciouser Palace in Newtown, and now finally to the Paris Palace in Ankara, Palace and PJ go together like, well, like Paris and Palace.

I'm sure you will all sleep a little better after reading that. Now here are the pictures as promised:

The Paris Palace

Hey There!

Remeber me? No? We used to hang out sometimes, occasionally i'd tell you stories, show you pictures and make a few lame fish-out-of-water jokes about an Aussie travelling in India. Ring any bells?

Anyway, it's been a long while since we've been acquainted, and I'm very sorry for that. Very sorry indeed. But I can't quite explain just how busy I've been! Insanely busy.

Everything is going well, really well in fact. I love the course, my uni, my classmates, my flatmates, and my new home.

For the next little while, spare time is going to be scarce, but I promise i'll do my best to a get a few posts up on here. I do have loads of things to share, but I just have no time to share them!

Hope all is well at home! Here are some shots of my new place, The Paris Palace.
