Boxing Day and the river has been a hive of activity this morning with literally hundred of boats charging at mighty speeds past our flat in their quest for a good spot to watch the start of the famous, annual Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. It is at times like this that one appreciates that Sydney must surely have one of the highest populations of motorboats and yachts in the world.
We are relying on our good friends, Doug and Claudia to buy themselves a "tinnie" (somehting they have been lusting after) so we too can charge off to exotic spots on the water. Having said that, we are going houseboating in the New Year with them - though I should imagine that will be at a considerably more sedate pace than the whirlwind throttles of the boats today.
