A pivot

Sometimes things don't go quite to plan and today was a perfect example. I'd planned to do some stuff that would have been super cool but conditions weren't right so I ended up doing a walk in the Botanic Gardens and a visit to the museum to see an exhibition from Scotland; more about that some other time.

I'll admit to not liking my plans going wrong or not coming to fruition but it's part of life and we must all be ready to pivot to new directions be it physically or emotionally when things don't work out as intended.

Today we did exactly that and had a really awesome day wandering the gardens and looking at the large exhibits of glass sculptures currently in place there (more about that later) and we had a legit burger and beer there for lunch as well. After a lovely walk through the Adelaide University grounds admiring the old architecture there, we arrived at the second pivot we'd arranged in place of our originals plans at the museum, an exhibition of one of the most amazing Viking hoards ever discovered, which was unearthed in Scotland, and immersed ourselves in history for a couple hours...with coffee in the cafe afterwards.

Life doesn't always go to plan but it's always life, at least until it's over, and I believe in making the most of it even when plans fail.
