Island of lazy bloggers

I can't believe it's nearly August already. I haven't "blogged" since March. To be honest it's a combination of being a lazy blogger and the fact that I have had a decent amount of work to be getting on with...

Anyway, a quick round up and photos:

Uncle Karen visited and amongst other things we went to Bruny Island:
Bruny Island South

Ella and I had a fabulous Easter weekend driving around the south-west of Tasmania:
Me at Lake St. Clair

Ella and some spooky trees!

At the end of May we went up to Queensland and saw Ella's family (including Ingrid and Phil back from Germany briefly)
Coongara Falls


Then we had a visit from Ella's family and we climbed some of Mt Wellington in the rain and cold:
Mt. "Wettington"

At some point I started playing football again, for local team Newtown Eagles ... and they put a picture featuring me (!) in the local daily paper:
New Town Eagles

Recently it's been quite cold and we've done a little less walking, but we have been up to the mountains to see the snow. A work mate of mine and his wife moved to Hobart a little after we did, from Townsville, in tropical North Queensland - so snow to them is a real novelty! Juan took these photos of us at Mount Field:

Last week we moved house ... but you'll have to wait for me to tell you more about that (hopefully not 5 months though).

I'll be over to England at the end of August, so maybe I'll see you then.
