May 17. Day 137. As good as it gets

It does not get any better than this, it just doesn't. The weather gods got it just right today. Beautiful clear blue, blue skies, warm but not hot sun, clear, clean and a stunning, stunning day.
For city dwellers with time to kill the place to be this morning was South Bank Beach where families were making the most of the day, in the pool, on the sand and  in the aquativity water play area. Why wouldn't you?
The crowd was modest in the morning but grew as the day progressed in recognition of the fact that it's Poet's Day (yep, P*ss Off Early Tomorrow's Saturday). Let's  hope the weather gods continue to smile on us.

  13. Wow love these photos, as much as we adore being more rural I do wish sometimes we lived in the big smoke as there is still soooo much to do outdoors (and inside when it's really pouring down), great post.
    Just stopping by from the Country Kids linky
