CHRISTMAS IN WINTER
It was lovely to get together with Diane and Graeme, Annette and Norm and Daryl and Julie and have all that heavy Christmas food in the 'right' season, instead of trying to eat a baked dinner in 38c degree heat!!
I put out a few Christmas decorations but mainly just wintery things like pine garland and pine cones, lots of my bird ornaments, a moose and a deer.
We ate vichyssoise, roast pork and chicken and vegies, plum pudding, tiramisu and Di's famous sponge cake.  I made chocolate boxes for the ladies.
 We started the morning with an early walk and a coffee at the harbour with Graeme and Diane.
 Pre lunch drinks in the garden.
 My winter garden.  My hanging baskets of primula hang from the clothes line to get maximum sun this time of year.
 Our dinner table at the end of lunch.
 We finished off the time with a walk round Bulli with Norman, Annette and Paddy.

At  Belmore Basin in Wollongong.
