More Summer Fun

Ah … summer holidays, oh how I love them.

We have been spending more time out on the water and went sailing last Friday to watch the King of the Derwent yacht race … two brothers, two sister-in-laws, one uncle, one yacht, whilst four grandchildren were with two grandparents at home.  Booom!

I reveled in the tranquility of being out on the water with just the wind to guide our way (and not worrying about James on board).

Saturday was oh so hot and we escaped the city early in the speedy boat to meet up with Nick’s folks and his brother’s family for some good ‘ol fashioned beach time.  Sand castles, collecting shells, frisbee throwing, swimming and the boys even went water skiing.

Early evening we popped down to the Taste of Tasmania for a Tea Cup ride, some fish and chips and a Big Bessie ice-cream!  Yum.

It has been so lovely having family in town, seeing Poppy play with her cousins and the best bit … getting to devour beautiful food and sparking wine!
