Sydney Hits 30! Summer is on the way.

Sydney hit 30 again for the first time after the shortish, cool winter. Every man and his dog was outside soaking up the sun. It eventually got warm enough for Karla and her friends to go for a swim; the water was freezing, but kids are wired differently...

Baby Eugene loved being outside all day long, and only wore his nappy and a short-sleeve vest.

Karla varnished Dad's new flight box, and it was dry to the touch by 5PM. She also did all the art-work on the box (with some help from dad).

My plane's motor and part of the propeller. This is an OS-46-AX; develops ~1.2kW at 17,000rpm. Can't wait to get back in the air again!

That evening we simply had to light the Weber and throw on some meat. It was a wonderful way to end the day, and our mates (Werner, Bianca and Colin) popped-over too.

Us on the "stoep" while the BBQ was going.

At the end of the evening (~9PM) we went down to the pool to cool our feet (was still 27 deg.C)
