Duckies!

Today was Kerry’s birthday, so we joined her and Adam in Kangaroo Valley for a day of paddling on the river. A little more active than my usual Christmas Eve activities, but now that I’m a Nettle I think I’d better get used to it. 🙂

We had a lovely day, Bev packed a great lunch which we had on the river, and we even had cake – and tea, which Adam cooked up on his camping stove.

Unfortunately the camera was in the barrel to stay dry, so no photographic evidence, but we saw about 4 different varieties of gorgeous reptiles, heaps of ducks, ducklings, cormorants, plovers, some kind of wading bird, a kingfisher, a few different kinds of very tiny (and very cute) birdies, and on the way home, Bev skillfully avoided hitting a pair of kangaroos with a deathwish.

And on friday, I got new shoes.

Crocs Mary Janes. A few more pairs of these (black, lime green) and my collection is almost complete.
