This morning Damien, Gabriel and I got up rather early, but not quite early enough to celebrate the shortest day. We're not early risers round here, so we set the alarm for 1/2 hour before sunrise, since there's no hills to the east of us, as in Adelaide, it was already bright when we got up. However we had a pleasant chilly start to the morning (it was only around 3degrees this morning), with candles lit, hot soup and hot tea for breakfast. Arden slept through it, and Willow wasn't here, as she's in Adelaide.
After our breakfast feast, we made rafts, which we took down to Claisebrook to try out. We had quite a bit of fun, chasing after the rafts.
Mini raft for Arden.

Sunk!
We're already planning some amendments to our design.
We spent most of the rest of the day out doors. We played some basketball, and did maths in the sun. Seems that Gabriel might do maths faster if we're sitting outside, we're planning on doing it again next week, to see how it goes.
