Sunday brunch and snow

On Sunday we had Adam, Jenny and Larissa around for brunch. After a bright sunny start it snowed. Which just goes to show, if you don't like the weather round here, wait an hour. It WILL change.



After brunch the skies started to clear, so I collected Adam, Jenny and Luca and we all went to walk off our sunday feast



We walked round past the Lady Liz and the Plim


to the Samson (there are LOTS of wrecks in Stanley Harbour)


Close to the Samson Jenny found a suspect package, so Adam phoned the bomb disposal squad and we sat around an waited

Cool huh?

In the evening it was sunny yet again (see what I mean about waiting?) so I took a hike up Wireless ridge to the memorial looking over Stanley:


The sunset was not too bad either.
