The World's Best Letter Box
No getting wet this weekend; it's simply too cold (16C). So we went for a stroll through Cremorne Reserve, with the intention of walking all the way to Mosman Bay along the North Shore. It turned out that we could not go beyond Old Cremorne Wharf due to maintenance activities on the path but that is another matter. It's the intention that counts. Among the many interesting things we noticed on our way was this lovely letter box. A true scale model of the property it belongs to, around 1:30. Pity that the letter box house didn't have a letter box itself...
With considerable effort we finally managed to locate our own building from Cremorne Reserve. It's the one with the flat roof that pokes out behind the large house in the front.
Despite the cold it is quite possible to get sunburn, and we did. Fleece and coat just don't go naturally with sunblock and a hat but evidently they should. The flowers are thinking it might be getting spring soon, and we certainly hope so. For the record, last Sunday we didn't go surfing because there was, and here I quote the Obsessive Surfer, too much surf. About six to eight feet. I personally thought there was too much wind and cold as well but that's just me.
