I'm sailing all day today and heading off down south the ski next
week.

Big dump of snow on Mt Wellington last night, down to 400m. Clear blue
skies, crisp and cool today. Been playing on one of our ships prior to
her heading back into the Southern Ocean.

Bloody bewdyfull !

Yep. Where else on the planet can you have most of the climate zones in
one clean, peaceful country with elbow room to move? Darwin to Hobart,

For all the people in the northern hemisphere - summer (for you)
solstice is over. Your days are getting shorter and soon they'll get
colder. Enjoy.
