The park in winter


Wow it was a particularly cold start to our Saturday morning walk, about 3 degrees and the wind was icy.

It warmed up though as we covered the kilometres, up and over Munro Drive and through the central suburbs as we made our way to Voodoo Lily Cafe in Birdhaven for our usual of poached eggs on rye and a large cappuccino, so welcome after the 10 kilometres and the cold.

We are certainly still in the grip of winter, our grass in the city parks is gold and trees still bare with no hint of buds as yet.

The landscaped 'erratics' looked marvellous today.
