The hills are alive...

...not with the sound of music but with people out and enjoying the unseasonably warm day. Yesterday was cold, about 12 degrees and cloudy, today was 17 degrees, hot and sunny. Everyone seemed to be making the most of the weather as it won't last. I went up to Victoria Park (on the Port Hills above Christchurch for overseas readers). I haven't been there for a long time, and had a shortish walk and basked in the sun on a rock, like a lizard. Very pleasant, fresh warm breeze, smell of olearia flowers and the sound of the pine trees. Nice. (See pictures below)
