It's the second day of the holidays today. Spent a good part of the day walking... in attempt to get to the reservoir here. It took us about two hours walking around the hills, up and down, north and south, east and west, before finally stumbling on our destination by chance. Whew! Apparently using the prescribed route, it should have taken us about 20 minutes... >.< And so it proved to be when we tracked our back using that route! At least we can say that we've gotten a good dose of exercise ^_^... my legs are starting to ache a little now. And I'm glad that I didn't stay indoors today too; the weather was incredible - the sun was shining and beautiful, the sky a bright blue with not a cloud in sight! A summer's day in winter LOL!

And I've just finished Tracy Chevalier's Falling Angels:

"But what about reassembly? How can the body and soul be reunited on
the Day of Resurrection if the body has been..." Mrs. Coleman did not complete
her sentence, but waved a hand at the cubicles.
"Burnt to a crisp," Maude finished for her. I stifled a giggle...
"Surely there is no difference between the decomposed remains of a
buried body and the ashes of a burnt one," he said...

Over his shoulder I saw a star fall. It was me.

It's surprising how quick a girl can grow up when she's a mind to.

It's nice how the books written in parts, seeing the sequence of events from the eyes of different people. Story was quite interesting, with many plots interweaving, though it was mostly about the two girls in the story growing up. Sad that the most intriguing character *or so I thought* was bumped off in the end.
