A walk in the park...

[kuangning]

Albert Park, to be precise. I would have liked to go swimming this weekend, but St Kilda Rd has been given over to the Music Festival, and the normally-quiet area was crowded with strangers. Paul and I set off in what was as close to the opposite direction as seemed likely to get us peace and quiet -- into Albert Park, around the lake. And this time, I got pictures.











This little guy was not interested in being menacing, unlike his friends in the background; he just wanted some attention. He got it. :)



Good day for a sail? They thought so. I grinned -- every last person out there with a remote control today was a middle-aged man.





It was a gorgeous day, despite the light showers we got. We came home to a night off from raiding, split pea soup, and TV-watching. And now I'm wondering about the joys of remote-controlled sailboats... something to think about later.

I can almost smell the breeze. :)

Hee. There are generally two breezes -- if it's blowing from the city, you get concrete smells, traffic smells, food smells, and it's usually hot and dry. If you can smell the salt, well, look out for rain, because it's blowing in off the ocean, and the temperature drops noticeably. That's my favourite kind, at least right now, in summer. I imagine I'll feel differently come winter when it's already more than cool and we go to cold. :)

I certainly think so. :) Best move ever.
