Never have I so looked forward to a knock on the door. This one happened mid-morning and it was a bunch of people to start me on my escape process. I can check out between 4am and 10am. My little sister and her husband are driving up from Canberra to collect me; should see them soon after 9am. I am so looking forward to sunshine and fresh air.

Then, this afternoon, another knock on the door. A hotel manager with a bottle of bubbly. How nice was that!

My sister suggested morning tea. My response – bring glasses.

I don’t know how soon I’ll be back on-line; maybe as soon as tomorrow afternoon. As soon as that happens I’ll post one more update, and then it will be on to the next adventure (whatever that may be).
