windswept



























out of the ten days we were on holiday, we only had one and a half days that were overcast. it was still warm and we went swimming 
at the beach. i also took a walk through the bush reserve that was across form the house we were staying in. 
i must admit i don't mind the odd cloudy day, i must be used to them having lived in london for 5 years :)
i like how the light is different and the beach can be very moody on a grey day.
i took quite a few photos when it was cloudy. more to come in the next few posts. 

p.s aren't these windswept trees beautiful?

at home





























it's funny to think that in about 6-7 weeks there won't be just the two of us living at home. there will be a new addition to the family. 
we're getting excited about baby boy's arrival. we've got some things still to organise, buy and rooms to rearrange.
i'm really looking forward to seeing what he looks like!

strickland house
































we're still very much enjoying re-discovering sydney. it's a year since we've been back! hard to believe really. i still miss london, but life 
here is good. i can't complain. 

the other weekend, by chance we discovered strickland house, vaucluse. the outside of the house and it's grounds are beautiful and 
there's even a harbour beach called milk beach within the grounds. the small beach feels quite european... except for the fact that it 
has an amazing view of sydney harbour - the bridge and opera house :)

mermaids at bronte beach































i thought i'd found two mermaids at bronte beach, swimming in the sea pool...
but alas they emerged from their swim and they had legs and feet. no mermaid tails in sight.

i'm back in sydney now from my family holiday up the coast. it was so nice to get away.
