La Vie En Rose

Hold me close and hold me fast

The magic spell you cast

This is la vie en rose

When you kiss me, heaven sighs

And though I close my eyes

I see la vie en rose

When you press me to your heart

I'm in a world apart

A world where roses bloom

And when you speak, angels, sing from above

Everyday words seem

To turn into love songs

Give your heart and soul to me

And life will always be

La vie en rose

I talked about having wanderlust a few posts ago.. And I am happy to let you all know that somehow, the universe heard my desperate need to be elsewhere, and managed to make it happen. I am off to Australia for a couple of glorious weeks. 

Yes, I will be seeing Koalas, Kanagroos (although I've seen them in England.. Probably not the same feeling.), wallabies (also seen these guys, and they scared me), and so many wonderful insects. I especially look forward to seeing the spiders that are as big as my face. And the snaayks (say it in an Aussie accent) (please also sense the frightenment and the anxiety on these reptiles/insects).

I shall report from the other side of the world, or when I am back!

Wanderlust away!! And while you're at it - listen to my new favourite rendition of the lovely La Vie En Rose (also a silent dedication to the end of the awesome run of How I Met Your Mother!)

Have some shrimps on the barby (that's how you say bye in Australia right?)
