Enjoying the Pool at Christmas


We flew back to Melbourne on Monday 21st - our 46th wedding anniversary. We had various problems with the hire car which were finally resolved the next day. We finished our Christmas shopping. Brian did a grand job cleaning the pool which was full of stuff caused by the men laying the tiles. On Wednesday the temperature soared to 39°and we all enjoyed swimming in the sunshine. Mike's mum, Mary, and brother Peter arrived on Christmas Eve. Ashleigh and Matthew were very excited about Santa coming. Christmas Day was cooler which was good because Zoë cooked a traditional Turkey Christmas dinner, apart from sprouts which are not available in the summer.

On Boxing day we called round to visit Zoë's English friends and spotted a poisonous red back spider by the patio window. Sue and Brian caught it and after identifying it killed it. A bite would have necessitated hospital treatment.
