Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. Sam Cooke

The cherry blossom has begun to bloom but I didn't get a chance to take photos so alas my planned post has no pictures. 

(Linking with #RubyTuesdayToo for this pic)

It was a beautiuflly warm weekend so this could be seen as the anticipation of swimming season, however, it snapped back to freezing winter weather with a bite so I don't feel I can revel in the approaching summer just yet.

In January this year, they opened the 'pool' at Barangaroo at Marrinawi Cove. I've yet to swim there but maybe this Summer....








As we roll through the dying days of Winter, it almost feels like we might skip Spring this year and jump straight into Summer...



Not related but this house had a bird feeder that was really doing it's thing...and I couldn't resist.

  7. Maybe you take a picture of the cherry blossoms next time. But the picture with the stones on the beach is also nice. At your place spring is to begin. We here have high summer with temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius.
    Have a good time
