Christmas in Brisbane

I had a quite Christmas down at the boat. Dorothy has flown home for her fathers 90th birthday which is at Christmas. She will also visit Vancouver to get a few things down and bring back some goodies for the boat.
I had some Potatoes, yam, some broccoli and a can of chili con carne for Christmas dinner, yumm. Not many people around the marina, most have gone home. Christmas is definitely not as big a deal here as it is in North America. I pulled the head apart to do some repairs and improve the smells, plus got a few other chores to do while Dorothy is gone.
Found a little tiny hill we can hike up to try to get some cardio when going on our walks. It takes 2 minutes, well maybe less, to get to the top, boy Australia is flat. It has rained every day the last 3 days, though not continuously. A small cyclone hit the coast near Cairns and then downgraded to a tropical storm, had huge amouts of rain there this morning, the first one of the season.
The rain has stopped so time for a walk.
