I headed off to the Altona lookout — one of my favourite places in Melbourne. What a view of the storm.

I timed it to see the full moon rise. I was expecting it to rise over the Brighton area, and was astounded to see this. You can see the storm creeping into the frame:

I left before the 21:15 fireworks over Melbourne because it started raining. And it rained and rained and rained.

By the time New Years came around, there were fireworks going off everywhere. I climbed onto the roof and everywhere I looked there were fireworks. It was blowing a gail, raining, and fireworks in a 360° view. Lightning was lighting up the sky and thunder was crashing around everywhere.

What a performance! What a fantastic way to see in the new year.

Happy New TwennyTen!

I was flicking through the tv channels and happened to stop at the weather channel. They were showing a severe storm front that was about 20 minutes away from Austin.

20 minutes later and sure enough, BAM! The wind was crazy. The rain was bucketing down — well — sideways.

Earlier today, I went for a little walk along the river jogging/cycle track. I saw a dude chilling out in a tree.

A little further along, I saw these two little fellas just hangin’ out.
