Where is summer?

Went to the beach today, Dee Why with Sandra, Jo and Dave. As Sandra pointed out, this has become a New Year's Day tradition. Last year, having held my driver's license for one week, I drove her up to the Central Coast to stay at Jeremy's dad's house for a few nights where we did lots of beachy things.

Today was my first actual beach swim of the summer (shocking, I know) - and the water was quite disappointing! 20 degrees, choppy and unpredictable surf, and lots of seaweed. AND i got very sunburnt despite the cloud! (Yes mum, i hear you...) But the company was tops, and I got my pineapple fritter and chocolate ice cream so I was a happy chappy.
