Some photos on this
national holiday recognizing the landing of the First Fleet in Port Jackson (Sydney Harbour) in 1788 (known to many indigenous people as '
Invasion Day'). Aradhna and I took a short ride from our new digs in Ivanhoe to
Warrandyte yesterday. Long known as an artist's retreat
only 30 km from Melbourne's CBD, the
rustic village offers a smattering of shops and cafes along a sublime stretch of the Yarra (above).
A stand of towering eucalypts.
This kayaker was among many enjoying an afternoon on, in or by the river. 
Australian wood duck.
Like good Aussies, Aradhna and I sought refreshment at this 113-year-old hotel after our hearty riverside walk.
