G'day!



Our first Australian sunrise which greeted us as we arrived here early this morning!  This photo is taken through the car window with my son's iPhone, because the battery in my own camera decided to give up the ghost in an untimely fashion!  It's not a great photo but the colours were amazing.


We had an excellent journey.  20 hours flying and we arrived on the dot.  We had to comment that it seems pretty crazy that the time keeping was really rather more impressive than a train journey from London to Edinburgh on a good day!




We sped on, crossing from Tullamarine Airport on one side of Melbourne to Armadale on the opposite side of the city.  Another iPhone photo snapped an early morning downtown Melbourne from the Bolte Bridge.  We are looking forward to our first excursion into the city - it's only a tram ride from here.




We've had a lovely family reunion and have finally met our new granddaughter and I've been able to hold her at last!  She is absolutely adorable, like a little tiny doll.  It's a happy prospect to know that I have two months to spend with her and her ma and pa!

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

The border in our tiny garden is in an in-between phase at the moment and not very colourful, but elsewhere there are pops of high summer colour and I have brought them together in my vase today. The running wave uses Blogger as it's vehicle and they are changing the way a post is created but unfortunately I cannot make the new format work. I can't progress beyond the title! I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
