Some winter photos of Melbourne…
I have just had a very instructive lesson in transferring photos - I will cook dinner for david tonight!!
The top left photos is at the Blairgowrie backbeach a week ago - for those not familiar with Melbourne, Blairgowrie is where we have our beach house and is about 1-1/4 hours southeast of Melbourne.
The second photo is the weattle - it is everywhere at the moment and is very indicative of the australian bush at this time of the year - we used to have Wattle Day at school but it’s only Macca on a sunday morning who remembers it now - signs of old age!!!
And the third photo is our back garden in winter - we are so pleased to see the lawn green again - it completely died off in summer due to the drought and we are still not allowed to water lawns so totally reliant on rain. Even our shower water (bucketed out each day) can only be put on the garden. It’s quite amazing how much water goes into the bucket while the water gets hot - and with a 4 minute timer on the shower wall, we have all become much more conscious of the water we use and waste.
It’s a glorious sunny day with brilliant blue skies - 3.3 degrees this morning but promises to be 16 later on -
Au revoir
Barb
