The Peninsula


Mornington Peninsula
Portsea Hotel 
King Salmon
Portsea Hotel

We passed the Mornington Peninsula on our way to Phillip Island, confined in a compact car, munching on nuts, and listening to Il Divo, whilst we marvelled at the extravagant line of mansions. And, somehow, I thought of Gatsby.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

If travel is like love, it is, in the end, mostly because it's a heightened state of awareness, in which we are mindful, receptive, undimmed by familiarity and ready to be transformed. That is why the best trips, like the best love affairs, never really end.
