rain

Fountains with water. (We have been in drought so all the fountains were turned off.)

Polka dot petals and wet footpaths.

Hidden bowling green at Parliament House. (It pays to be tall sometimes.)

It was cold and rained all day today but being home, snug and warm(ish), is nice. I like winter. This winter has been a bit dreary and everyone has been a bit flat and grouchy but water from the sky is just refreshing. It washes all the leaves and makes one remember when Melbourne was the City of Gardens. Spring isn't too far away.
