midwinter walk along the Yarra river

Our usual swimming spot on the Yarra looked lovely today, even if it is midwinter, just past the shortest day here in Melbourne. Of course, even though the sun was shining, it was too cold for a dip.

Or was it? Penny didn't think so.

Then it was time to dry off with a run around.

Even though we were walking at noon, the shadows were long, a reminder of the time of year.

It's so great to know Penny has recovered from her recent surgery!
