Kayak with Jacqui and Tom
New Year's Eve--a short trip (starting in the rain!) to Maianbar cafe, and a paddle back in the sunshine. We passed a huge new house--all painted white-including enormous boatshed.

Blackheath-Govatt's Leap- with the Housdens
A quick daytrip, a few days ago, which strangely ended in Katoomba accident and emergency after I fell over in their bathroom and placed a neat cut on my scalp. Blood pressure, blood sugar levels and an ECG later --all being normal, I was released, with a warning from doctor

Oak Park and family
Over a couple of days, we visited Oak Park rock pool and Toby practiced using an underwater camera and I took some pics of him doing aquabatics. It took us some time to realise there is an 'underwater' setting the camera! There was also a dirigible floating past
