centennial parklands

• 14 Dec 2011

Last weekend I met my friend Jenny and Miss. B for a stroll/cycle through Centennial Park. The weather had other plans and after 10 minutes the heavens opened and we ran back to my car and huddled inside waiting for the weather to clear. The weather didn't clear and there's only so much you can do to entertain a 5 year old inside a car, so soon after we admitted defeat and went our separate ways. I did manage to take a few photos before the heavens opened.



I'm very lucky to live so close to this amazing park founded by Sir Henry Parkes, the stern looking gentleman you see above.



Notice the threatening skies?



Even the dogs were looking noticeably windswept.



For a split second the sun came out to illuminate the calla lillies then just as quickly disappeared again. Is summer ever going to arrive in Sydney?

I'll try popping back later in the  week with a sneak peek of what's in store for you every day next week. It's a bit of a Christmas baking bonanza.

So until then,
