We had a busy weekend. DH’s family live in Queensland, about 1300km (800 miles) away from us, but his mum had a flying visit to Sydney on the weekend, so we took her to Bondi Beach.

\nDon’t we have beautiful beaches? It was hot, and the beach was pretty busy. These pictures were taken not long after we arrived, and more people came as the day went on. DH’s Mum was amazed at how many people were there, but I’ve seen it busier.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nI spent most of the day telling Em to put on her sunscreen, and of course, I’m the one who came home with a sunburn. Em likes the beach, and we really should go more often.

\nAfter the beach, we went for an Italian dinner. I took my sock knitting with me, but I didn’t do any at the beach because the wind kept blowing sand at us, and I didn’t want a sock full of sand.
\nI got some<\/em> knitting done over the weekend, though.
\nI finished the bag.

\nIt’s smaller than I expected, but it’s cute. Even on the 8mm needles, I used less than one ball of Lambs Pride Bulky. Now I need to get some handles and lining to finish it off.
\nAnd the final tally on the hat was 85% in favour of knitting it, 15% said not to.
\nThe colours I have are stash yarns, but the blue is brighter than the picture on the pattern. I started it last night, after I finished the bag.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nThe baby shawl is finally<\/em> blocking as we speak, pics tomorrow.
\nAnd finally, for Sandy<\/a>, a picture of a speeding cloud!

\nNice way to end the weekend \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
