Looks like dry July is finishing early this year.

The festival of the teenagers for this year continues with a cake for the youngest.

A great night watching Sammy J at the Sydney Comedy Festival tonight followed by a curry and a couple of cheeky beers. Proper Saturday night fun.

Our annual family friendly trip to Jervis Bay was a little different this year. Mainly because none of the families had any children with them. A good time was had by all, and we decided that next year we are going upmarket.

A change of activity today. My first pool swim for three and a half months. It was hard work.

A sunny, fairly still morning and I passed by the now closed Manly Oceanworld.

Another damp morning. That’s not a night photo but the morning sun peeking through the rain clouds.

After an unexpected warm spell over the weekend we’re back to more spring like weather with a cold southerly wind and rain showers.

It’s been a little while. I’ve been out and about but not as diligent at sharing my photos. Here is the wharf this morning with a fast ferry on it’s way to Circular Quay. There aren’t as many people on board as I’m used to seeing.

A break from the routine today. Even though squad training isn’t allowed under our current COVID restrictions we are allowed 2 people on court at a time. So I booked a lesson with my coach and he made me run around like a loony for an hour.

A picture from a walk I took because it was a no tennis Saturday. It’s not a bad consolation.

A little cold this morning, and there was a wall of cloud a few kilometres offshore. It’s quite common for the weather to be completely different on the shore from even this short distance into the sea.

A very different early morning colour palette today as a cold front from the South decided to spoil the fair winter weather party.

A tree, an emerging ball of fire, what more can you want?

An early stroll including the sunrise over Manly Ocean Beach
