One day Rhi and I were mooching around the side alleys of Cairns and we stumbled across a small, immaculately turned out art gallery exhibiting the most awesome photos we've ever seen. There were huge prints of amazing landscapes and unbelievable scenes from Australia and many other countries around the world and I thought, 'we have to save up and get one of these when we have a house of our own'. One of the largest prints (above) really caught my attention and seeing it on the internet really reminds me of standing in that gallery, a few days after we found out that Rhi was pregnant and with all the excitement of knowing that our lives had just taken on a new significance.
Now, 8 months on from when we first looked at these pictures, we have our house, Bump is expected to make an appearance next Monday and I have started to think about the journey we've made together since our travels ended. Looking back at these photos recently has highlighted how far we've come, and I can't wait to earn enough to afford to put a piece of our memories on the wall of our house - perhaps in the nursery, so that Bump will always see some of where they have been and the journey that they have made with us.
