You know what they say about boys and their toys. Well, Mick bought himself an early Christmas present this week.
Today he christened it out at Burraga Dam, which is a lovely peaceful place. We last visited here last year.
We took a picnic lunch and found a shady tree by the water.
Mick found it very relaxing paddling around. He took his fishing rod, but it would have been a very unlucky fish to be caught in the middle of a hot day.
I had planned to take out some stitching, but didn’t get myself organised. Instead, I did this.
It took me all afternoon to complete three Sudoku puzzles. I may have just had a little nanna nap while doing them. I took a pile of magazines to browse through, but didn’t open any of them. Rather a pleasant way to spend the afternoon.
The weather was rather hot here today, reaching 37 degrees C on our back verandah, however, at Burraga, which is an hour from home, it was only 29 degrees C. We hope to have a weekend camping out there at some stage, so I will definitely have to have some stitching ready for then.
What a lovely relaxing day .... Did you have a turn of the Kayak ?
