Winter is great.

I went to the renewables fair at Valla last week, afterwards we took the kids down to the beach for a picnic. We had the beach mostly to ourselves and poked around in the colourful little rockpools. Nicoles' little boy Jimmy (age 3) ran straight into the creek. It was him who inspired Evan and I to go for a swim.

It was one of those clear cold day's with warm sunshine and the water was perfect. I could see right through the oncoming waves, sometimes catching a glimpse of a small fish or two suspended in front of me.

Beautiful.
