Last night, in a major 'honeydo' we went to see a movie, had a romantic dinner at a bayside fish restaurant and then sat on the beach and watched the midnight fireworks over the city from across the water which was all quite spectacular.
The amazing thing about the evening in Melbourne was when we emerged from the cinema at around 9PM the temperature was still around 38C (it got to almost 43 yesterday) and when we got back into the car around 12.30AM the temp was still 34C. New years' day here is forecast to be 37. Scorcher!
I can't remember a time when it was so hot so late at night here. Lying on the sand there was a thin boundary layer of slightly cooler air coming off the water which was nice.
Anyway, a very happy and productive 2008 to everyone!
What's your new year resolution? My dear wife has already made several on my behalf after I informed her the resolution was not to make silly resolutions.
