Australia Day

I had a very busy Australia Day!

Woke up super early and went for a long swim at Brighton, before it got busy and hot. The water was so beautiful! I really want to get down to the beach some more this Summer.
Then I met up with one of my best mates from school, Alicia, and had brekkie with her on Jetty road. Ish has just come home from a 2 year stint in Qld with her boy, so it was great to chill with her.
Then home to whip up a salad and off to a barbeque at Simon's place (Simon is my mate from Uni and now one of my best friend's boyfriend's - Adelaide is too small!). It was soooo hot outside. I don't know if it's a traditional Australia Day / Hottest 100 thing but we pulled out the kiddy pool and all stuck our feet in to try and stay cool.
Unfortunately my phone ended up having a bit of a swim, so it's now completely cactus :-( Big grrrr.

And another big grrr for 'Wish you well' being number 1. What's that about?! Not sure how i feel about the countdown this year. I'm a bit sad the Royksop's 'What else is there?' didn't make it in at all, coz i love that song. But Yay! to Sarah Blasko's 'Flame Trees' making it into the top 10. I know lots of people don't agree with covers in the Hottest 100, but that's such a beautiful track.

My fave photo of Christmas this year: me with my cousin Ming's little girl, Maeve.
(This is one isn't really random, but I love it so much I couldn't make myself wait to put it up with a Chrissy update post.)
