So this view is from our regular run along the harbour - went out for a walk around mid-day, felt a breeze and decided to run instead, yep, still way too hot for that.  These houses have [boats] in their backyard. We won't even talk about what's in the garage. See all 30 days posts here… … [Read more...]

So I have decided that the rainbow category is my get-out-of-jail-free card. It was a [rainbow] of heat, light and people today.  The temp reached 42 degrees - that's 105 - not 80, not 90, not even 100, but 105. HOT HOT HOT.  There was a breeze - if something that feels like it is blowing out of a oven can be called 'breeze', and if the category wasn't taken already, this pic would have been [fire] simply due to the fact that it felt like everything was about to burst into flames at any moment.  … [Read more...]

Summer pink frangipani [flower] over the fence of the neighour's place.  I see this tree on my way home every day - makes for a nice welcome!

'Who by [fire]...and who, shall I say, is calling....' so rather than staring at the sun today I was staring at these lightbulbs for most of it. Serenity now, serenity now. See all 30 days posts here… … [Read more...]

[Dinner] in Redfern at Eathouse Diner.  We've driven past this place a few times and it is always packed.  It has been blisteringly hot today [it is after 11 and still over 30 - that's 90 degrees people 9-0] and we just couldn't be bothered to cook - especially at 9pm...  The decor is slightly reminiscent of NY/Cuban/Mexican, although the menu is mod-Oz-ish....thats ok, food was tasty, service lovely and we will prob go back.
