This is one of those glorious years where Anzac day falls in the same week as Easter. In practice, that means that for three days leave I get 10 days off work. And, because it's all such a bonus, rather than feeling like a holiday, it feels like a very, very long weekend. The difference is that for a holiday I always feel like I need to do things. Achieve things. For this time off I don't feel that at all.
We have some things going on in the evenings - as well as Easter it's pesach, but the days have been gloriously languid. Some Crossfit, some reading, some knitting, some sitting on the balcony in this ridiculously warm weather, some time out with friends. It's meant to autumn, and climate change scares the crap out of me, but I do love the warmth and sunshine.
We're heading up to Marysville for the middle of the week, just to take relaxation to a new level, so there will be all of the above activities, plus some trail running.
I'm knitting Stronachlachar, a sleeveless jumper by Kate Davies, which is perfect for this extended weekend - interesting but not taxing, relaxing but never boring.
