Need a quiet day - day after day of over 10k steps. Body is feeling it. Perfect way to start an easy day is to entertain my wife's grandson

alt

Ouma got down on the floor to play Spiderman skittles

alt

The action shot. Pleased to have had multi shot mode working - not a big gap between shots

Cooked a bbq lunch. Then did an umbrella walk around the suburb to get steps done

alt

Gymea lily in front of the block down the road. Maybe a lily theme for the walk

alt

Easily played out - gymea lily above the sale board

alt

And one above the Sold board one block down. Great spot to buy for anyone working in the city - 100 metre walk to the station

alt

Succulent flower time

alt

Perfect shaping of a full camellia - nice framing too

alt

Hemigenia flower - different to the one I see in the bush

alt

Chose to do a loop walk rather than take the train. Did not have to go far to get steps done and the rain was looming

alt

Did add to the lily count - arum lilies

alt

Walked past Eryldene House - they had an open dsy today. Was finished when I came by but the front door was open revealing a huge grandfather clock behind the front door.

alt

A splash of white - no idea what it is

alt

This ad caught my eye - PASH HARD - a passionfruit drink like hard lemonade or ginger beer

As I came around the next corner heard the distinctive growl of a V8. The Morgan says he. Sure enough

The best part is the first parking needed another go. Enough time to take a shot

alt

Next time I will stop to have a chat. We have talked with the owner - he comes from a town called Nigel not far from where I grew up

alt

My wife had stopped at shops - ingredients for Mexican tacos dinner. The serviette colours for her homeland and the likely winner of Tour de Femmes cycling race - Demi Vollering - The Netherlands

alt

Was a late night struggle last night with the dog shit Actifit software. Got my post done a little after 10pm. But it was not showing - the snapshot shows the system had recorded the steps but would not allow me to re-sync. Discord help was asleep. Eventually deleted the app, changed the time zone to have time to reload the post. That worked.

Not what the man in the street wants to deal with. Hard to know where the problem was. Actifit said my post was posted. That tells me the problem was their end and not a problem with my network. And if it was my end they would have been able to pick up my post from cache. They did not. Got to say I am ready to give up. Been doing this 10 years - all for $86 of Sportstalk tokens. Why bother? Why? Because the discipline of doing more than 5k steps a day is life good
