Spring Has Sprung



The Bridge Club recreational walking group has been in winter recess, with only occasional gatherings for the consumption of food and alcohol. Today heralded the official start of our 2012/2013 season with a walk from Collins Street to Days Bay, a not inconsiderable distance and a good start as we are only five weeks away from our trans-tasman trip. The charming picture above is very like the scene today, but as I have mis-placed my camera this is a Google image. A more concerted search for the camera is clearly called for or a replacement will need to be purchased before we scale Sydney Harbour bridge and sample the delights of the city.


It has been a very mild and reasonably short winter and, until the ridiculously early start to daylight saving in a few weeks, I am currently enjoying a sunshine walk to school in the mornings and arriving home in daylight  each evening. Birdsong and blooms abound and Millie and I look forward to another summer at the beach.  


Yes, this image is stolen too. But it's very springy and I have been enjoying all the signs of spring on my morning walks and even had time to feed the ducks at the civic gardens on Friday. Life is good.
