Winter Solstice [Southern Hemisphere]

The Winter Solstice has come and gone here in Melbourne. A fact for which I am terribly grateful. While I do not so much mind the cold weather, it is the lack of light at either end of the day that bothers me.

We left he house at 6.55am this morning and by the time we were on Citylink, some 20 minutes later, the sky had lightened, revealing the wonderful hot air balloons that gently float in the still morning air.

They are magical, sublime and so very, very pretty.
