Winter has hit us hard this year. I know we don’t get winters like many people around the world, in that it doesn’t snow and compared to some countries doesn’t get that cold. Then again we have really hot summers. It is all relative.
Just back from Beechworth
You may have noticed I haven’t been around here. Sorry, but I’ve been to Beechworth for the last few days.

My car and other things have kept me busy this week, so I thought we could do another New Zealand Wanderings and look back at the Dunedin Botanical Gardens. They are stunning and you can’t help thinking autumn was perfect to see them.
Weekend Wanderings – Melbourne with an overseas visitor

New Zealand Wanderings Day 4 – Trees and Towns

Weekend Wanderings – Alowyn Gardens
During the week I had a quick trip to Alowyn Gardens. I was there to talk about doing some workshops, but I also spent some time in the gardens and thought it would be a good post for Weekend Wanderings.
