Christmas happening

Hee hee, I borrowed Jenny's Christmas glasses.


Our trees looks amazing!

The Christmas ham.
Our Christmas Day meal where there were supposed to be 7 of us reduced to 3 with Adam getting covid a few days before Christmas.

Jenny made this amazing dessert, lamington fingers, chocolate custard, cream and berries. It looked fantastic and was eaten, always a good sign.

One hot afternoon we went down to the beach, it was the busiest I have seen for years, boats, jet skis and people everywhere.


One Wednesday we saw the market was happening at Portarlington



There were a lot of people wandering around. Several purchases came home with us!
Another morning looking for Adventure Labs in Geelong while David was at Outpatients

beside the Carousel 

We found onefo the snow globe paintings the council have installed around the city

and put ourselves in it

then a lovely lady offered to take our photo!

the lighted Christmas tree at Eastern Beach

and one of the bollards I visited. 
Enough for now, hope I haven't  put you to sleep!!
Happy stitching.
