South Golden Beach.
I, of course did not make first light on the 1st January! But it was a nice, lazy day & in the afternoon we all had a walk along the beach.
On 2nd January Rowan dropped me off in Byron & Rosie & Geoff took me into the hills & we enjoyed a nice walk in the forest.

On 10th I finally got out of Abu Dhabi Airport after not getting on various flights because they were full! Exhausted, I left my wallet on a table in the secure holding area, only to discover my loss on arrival at Heathrow. Big hassle!
Spent the next week with Nicci, Justin & the grand kids, which was very pleasant. Peter & Sue came over with their new dog on 15th & we all enjoyed a walk in the woods & a great Sunday lunch prepared by Justin.
On 17th I had a walk in Nonsuch Park & nearby Warren Farm. It was a crisp cold winters day but I really enjoyed the exercise & saw such birds as Green & Great Spotted Woodpecker; Nuthatch, Coal Tit & lots of Redwing. It was a shame I didn't bring my big camera & lens with me for this trip, as I could have got some good photos.
I flew out on the evening of 18th back to Abu Dhabi & relative warmth! It had been a nice trip but spoilt by renewing my passport & loosing my wallet: both giving hassles!
