It's xmas eve now, 8pm.
Stinking hot day, so humid it was hard to breathe for a few hours!
My son arrived after a 4 hour drive and we had a nice couple of hours sweltering. Then off to the coast to buy prawns, oysters and salmon steaks and a LOT of ice.
2.5 hour drive up to my daughter where we are about to set out some platters of cold foods and have a few pre-xmas drinks. (they've just raced up to the bottle shop as she wasn't prepared)
Tomorrow we drive another 2 hours up to another son to consume seafood and some of the 40 cucumbers I picked out of the garden this morning ... we will cook the salmon on the BBQ of course and eat cold foods with it.
I'm so glad I am doing a bit of a road trip with my children for company as it would have been far too many memories on my mind had I been preparing food and setting things out at home this year.
Not feeling like it is xmas at all which suits me really. Just a nice trip to have some nice time with my kids...
