Australia Day 6, home

Moon rise
Two nights in a row. Finally figured out the iPhone setting to get the Moon’s detail.

A good tired is good.

A good tired is better than tired.

Traveling lean for vibrancy is self-evident. Living lean for vibrancy at home is not, but can be.

Outside looking in. We were exhausted last night. Tomorrow’s posts will start with our first Australian sunrise two hours ago at 5:15AM.

Living with lean, prioritized priorities is art.

Day One, yesterday was a success.

A ‘good tired’.

And by tired, we mean at the end of the day, with all of adventure’s adrenaline gone, exhausted.

An honest, rarely felt, comprehensive exhaustion.
