Florida storm

We've had weeks of very hot and humid weather here in Florida... i officially think it's hotter here in Florida during spring than in Durbs in February... eish! Last night a storm finally rolled in bringing some much needed rain and of course, thunder and lightning... which i've taken a fascination to... gone are the days of me hiding under my bed during storms!!

I think i may have found my new hobby... well photography has always been a hobby of mine but photographing storms is something i could get into :)

Coming to an end

My season at Johns Island is coming to an end... slowly but surely, it's actually unbelievable that i have been here for almost 7 months. It's been a long and hard season but a good one, it's a bit of an anti climax now... we were busy for weeks on end through spring break and easter, working 60 hours a week and now in the last couple of weeks business has dropped off, members have returned up north and staff levels have almost halved! It's been sad having to say goodbye to all the friends i've made in the last 7 months and especially saying goodbye to Julz, she has gone up to NYC for a couple weeks and is then off to Block Island to work for the summer... who knows when i'll see her again.

I'm now in the process of packing up my house and moving out... the remaining staff have to be moved around because some apartments have to be handed back to the leasing company... so i'll be living out of a suitcase for 2 weeks... urgh :P

My days in the Florida sunshine are numbered, i've been working very hard on my tan... i may even look like i've spent 7 months in FL, make all the people in Europe jealous ;) all plans for my departure are set and things are coming together nicely, i can't wait to see my sexy geek (Stu) again :)
