New Year, New Adventures!

Heading out of Melbourne to the Brisbane Ranges

We didn't do much for New Year's Day in 2012.  Nissa made wonderful cinnamon scrolls and Vaughan practised his reading.  It was a perfectly pleasant, quiet day.  I distinctly remember 1 January, 2011 though.  We drove along the Blackgate Road where we spotted emu bathing in mud puddles on the track and surprised many wild goats and other wildlife.  That drive was in sharp contrast to the one we took yesterday - "graded" dirt track vs six-lane Melbourne freeway (although we drove along some lovely country roads later in the day)! 

Back on New Year's Day 2011, there was no way we would've predicted that in two year's time we would be living in Melbourne - so there is definitely a sense of expectation, wondering what else 2013 might hold!
