Birthday at the Cinema

Puzzle pieces

Part of the Puzzle

I have a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle of a Giant Panda that myself and Mum been trying to put together for over a year now (possibly closer to two years). We started off going really well, but then got stuck on some of the large areas of black fur and brown tree trunk. The semi-completed puzzle spent six months under a bed gathering dust, but is now back on the dining table and I'm vowing not to move it until it's finished and framed (I'm certainly not pulling it all apart again!).

Boambee Creek Panorama

Boambee Creek

Today we had lunch down at Boambee Creek with Steve & Meg and their family. The day started off overcast but turned out really nice and warm. I decided to take my camera as I thought I'd go for a walk up to the headland and try for some panoramas using my camera's 'manual' mode (for the first time).

After a nice picnic lunch/barbeque, the kids went down to the water to play while the adults looked on with their coffees. I ventured down to the water to take a few shots of the kids, then started off on my walk up to the headland accompanied by Bobby. Read more about Boambee Creek
