Winter

The weather forecast for today was supposed to be sunny and temperatures up to 20 degrees. As you can see it didn't happen and after the last few days of sunshine, winter is back again. It has rained all day and the hibiscus in our garden is looking in a sorry state.

@ibt Thanks so much for the fav Ilona. Luckily we only had one day of winter and today is back to sunshine again. Beautiful weather today.

@beryl The good thing about winter in Australia is that it isn't winter every day. We have lots of beautiful weather days. Today was one of them. such a change from yesterday with all that rain.

@888rachel Back to sunshine again today, so can't complain

[Babs]

@pcoulson We did get the sunshine after all today. They just got the forecast wrong by one day.

Love to have a go at painting this, don't think I'd be very successful though. Love the water drops.
