Hello Friends and Family:
So we are in our shuttle van hoofing it to the Cairns Airport and the van makes a stop at...Thala Beach Lodge! Willie makes a break for it and dashes out, as he has been dying to meet the lady from the front desk who had been emailing him back and forth with Natalie Imbruglia info. The people waiting for the airport shuttle get on board and away we go when this lady behind me says, "Isn't your son still in the Thala?". OMG!!!!
The shuttle stops and I race into the Lodge.... I pause... I look behind me at the people in the van who are all shooting me dirty looks like they think we are making them late for their flights... I make a quick decision to "go for it" and into the quiet eco-zen atmosphere I holler "WILLIE!!!!!". I hear back from way up in the dining room, "I'M COMING!!!!!!!" And down he runs to the shuttle. I cannot describe the looks of the employees and guests of the Thala whose scrunched-up faces are sending me the message "Ugly American!". I slink back into the van WITH Willie by my side. He continues to regal the passengers with more updated Natalie Imbruglia news -which he is positive they are interested in... and I close my eyes and enter deep meditation. Thankfully, I still had a few soothing images of our recent visit to Daintree and Kuranda running through my mind - to help assist with my meditation process! (See attached photos).
