Our First Christmas Down Under

Yesterday we had a lovely first Christmas Down Under. We went to our friends the Swartzes' house for brunch, then took a car-share van to the beach at Nielsen Park, where we went swimming and had a picnic.

The weather cooperated by not raining that day! It was sunny and warm, but not too hot. The water was still a bit chilly - apparently it will be a few more months until it really warms up - but the beach here is quite pretty and the water is really clear.

Afterwards, we went back to Chez Swartz for home-made egg nog and Boggle. What a great day.

Here's the link to the rest of the photos from the day.
