Postcards from South Wharf

The final day of 2009 and, thankfully, I had an actual day off. So - naturally - I went to a shopping complex (say what? inorite.) Came home with a gorgeous and bright blue Emily the Strange handbag. The day was glorious and warm and an old friend says 'Hello'.

Hello.

I spent most of the morning wondering why all of the shops had displays in white clothes. Yeah. I'm an idiot. I know. The walk back to the train station was lovely, again with the bright and sunny and everything freshly cleaned for the evening;s festivities. Speaking of, mine happened in Northcote. There was a BBQ, there were hula hoops and there was juggling.

Actual tomatoes were harmed during this process.

Then we drank pina coladas and got caught in the rain. Eventually the party had to move inside due to the lightning storm (which kicked arse over any fireworks). We saw in the NY with sparklers and party poppers and the usual. Kate, Chris and Catie send their love.
