Hi there! Thankyou all for your lovely comments about my 2010 recap. After scheduling that post, Mr BBB and I jumped in the car, drove to the in-laws’ farm, and spent the next few days with our friends and their two adorable kids.
Technology free. No phone and no internet.
And it was a glorious start to the new year.
Just beaches.
Sunshine and swimming.
More beaches…
More sunshine. More swimming ;)
Post-swimming munchies…
Reading and….
G & Ts ;)
Giggles…
Tasty food…
Eaten alfresco with a view…
More G & Ts…
And new friends…
Of the equine variety.
Champagne
And a bucket load of fresh prawns to see in the New Year.
We had such a wonderful time – playing in the sun, swimming, eating and drinking to our hearts content.
Sadly, it was over too quickly, and we have returned home to spend a few days at home before we start back at work later this week. That is sure to be a shock to the system…
But for now… CHEERS and WELCOME to 2011!
It sure is going to be a fantastic year. I just know it!
(PS. Due to a lack of internet access and a houseful of guests, I have been rather slack at leaving comments on your blog posts. I have, however, been keeping up to date with most of everyone’s adventures and wish you all a very happy new year! xx)
Happy Baking :)

How brilliant to have been near the beach on these hot hot hot days! Also.. horsie!!! :D Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful.. absolutely lovely. I haven't been near a beach in way too long!
ReplyDeleteAlso, what exactly did the 'bogan burger' entail?? If its composition is as trashy as its name, I'm pretty sure it's something I'd enjoy! :D
@ Lizzi - hehe we did ask, of course, and were told that it was a regular beef burger with the addition of a potato cake/scallop!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful!!
ReplyDelete*Bogan* burger???? :) Beef and potato..? Weird.. :)
Wow! Looks like an amazing times. Sometimes it's nice to turn everything off and enjoy who is around you! Cheers to 2011!
ReplyDeletebeautiful sunshine and atmosphere. Enjoy the lack of internet, it can be a good break!

Welcome to 2011!
ReplyDeleteI really need a few days without technology, but it would drive me nuts and I would be so uptight the whole time! No reading blogs? Arhh!
There is a bogan burger at a pub in Melbourne, it has bacon, beef, chicken schnitzel and a potato cake on it, among other things. I've got a photo of it --> http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs261.snc1/8820_523842440520_212900114_31522286_2144929_n.jpg
