Journal Entry:
Hung out trying to get connected to the internet from home. After some success Sof and I went to the pool for a swim. I jumped in and started swimming while Sof laid out in the sun to warm up first. I managed 2,000 meters and it felt a lot better than last week - not surprisingly Sofie never made it into the water. Had lunch at the Padington Inn (variety is over rated). Spent a couple hours at the beach - one of the harbor beaches between Double Bay and Rose Bay. Back at the house I got back on the net and got the photo part of my journal working again (the large photos had been offline for the last month). Susie came by, and Chris got home and we walked up to the park to see an open air movie - one of my favorites, Big Wednesday. The picnic diner was excellent, and the movie (as always) was great.
