We drove to Kim's to spend Sunday and Monday there. Kim has a 'new' place she recently bought right near the main shopping street of St Kilda. It is in a magnificent position and was a good investment for her. We were flying home early Tuesday morning so this gave us some valuable time with her.
Chris, Wendy and the two kids Andrew and Emily popped over for a BBQ lunch and a look around St Kilda that afternoon. The day was exceptional with a warm 22 degrees. We walked to the beach and had a great time all together. Click on the photo for a larger view.On Monday Kim was off to work early leaving us to our own devices. Unfortunately the weather turned very wet and much cooler. We got out for a spell in the morning but the afternoon was spent quietly watching the rain fall. My brother Geoff popped up from "Indented Head"and spent some time with us late in the afternoon.
A lovely Malaysian meal that evening was enjoyed by all.
Our plane was due to depart Tullamarine at 8:10 am Tuesday. We made an early start and arrived in time. However the departure time had been changed to 8 am, fortunately we made it OK. With renovations going on at the airport, we had to be bussed to our plane. Thus the earlier than expected departure time!
There were lots of kids on the plane as we near school holidays. It probably wasn't our best plane trip ever!
The pool has now been cleaned and new chemicals administered. The new blind for the shelter goes up early this afternoon. I was swooped by a magpie on my 12k bike ride this morning and the swim in the pool afterwards was quick.
We may have a problem with the pool's 'chlorinator'. It indicates the pool needs salt when yesterday's testing showed the salt level was fine. This could mean we need a new 'electrode' which is another $480. I will take it all apart later today and take it to the Pool Shop for testing.
Our pool is is 8 years old this winter just gone so the electrode has done us very well.
