Summer in Sydney

It was a gorgeous summer weekend here in Sydney. 


Saturday morning we took a long walk down to the harbour with the dogs.  Around McMahons Point there is a huge Mulberry tree right along the water.  It had been picked pretty clean, but we were able to get enough (semi-)ripe mulberries to make a tart(let).  The dogs had a great time running on the beach, and climbing in the dirt near the Mulberry tree.  No pictures as I unfortunately forgot the camera - but I did get a shot of the Mulberries.  Yummmm.

And after such a long walk, we then had to have a rest in the garden.


Sunday, JL and I went to Balmoral Beach.  On the plus side, it was great beach weather, not too hot and not too cold, with a bit of a breeze.  On the minus side, my butt got severely burned and I'm in a bit of pain today.  But super loose velour pants make it all ok....

[Knitting update to come later today!]

Looks like a lovely day, and the animals look so contented. Glad you are enjoying the sunshine and warm weather. We, of course, are looking forward to some cooler weather soon! It has been hot for too long in So. CA. My wish is for a nice rainstorm to come my way. I'm ready! Good to see pictures of everyone. Love, Mom
