Sort of Swimming

Down to a Sunless Sea Nicole had a day off so we went walking at Mount Coot-tha this morning, parking at a different spot in a little pocket of houses nestled amongst the trees and walking up a road to a pond we've been to before - looking very empty and sorry for itself - then walking round quite a difficult circuit which Eloise found quite difficult and had to be carried around most of.

Eloise slept well in the middle of the day and we retired for a while to the hammocks outside as the weather was nice and warm after yesterday's grey drabness.

Then to swimming where Eloise did absolutely brilliantly, swimming unaided by person or flotation device to me for a distance of six feet, or more, or less. By God though she looked relieved when she reached me....

She had a little water-burp on the way back in the car... we thought she'd probably swallowed a lot of water....

And vomited copiously after her supper and bath, spraying ravioli everywhere.

"Thank goodness for wooden floors," we said.
