Daisy Chains and Picnics

By later afternoon the wind had died and we all ventured out. We enjoyed a drink by the Kangaroo Bay marina in Bellerive. It was nice to get out of the house for a while.

It was a lovely day, the sun was shining with hardly a cloud in the sky. We decided to go for a look at the yachts that had arrived from the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. It was quite windy so we didn't stay long. We headed to Mure's to get an ice cream and sit indoors for a bit before heading home. Jodie went in the pool for a while when she came home from work.
