hello gang and happy new year! are you back into the swing of it yet, or are you still in holiday mode and making the most of the belated Sydney summer?

I have just had a swim in the most gloriously clean water in the harbour off Elizabeth Bay and was completely stoked to be joined by 2 playful fairy penguins! they were ducking and diving and making their little penguin noises.... too cute... 


oh and did you know that a new cafe opened up over the xmas break? right there at Elizabeth Bay Marina - what a top spot for a coffee.... 


speaking of coffees.... the Deli at Potts Point had a queue a mile long on Xmas Day - being the only place open, they were a very popular destination for those among us who just can't go without!  The Deli also deservedly won the 2011 inaugural trophy for 'Best Christmas Display' awarded by the Potts Point Partnership and judged by celebrity design guru Amanda Talbot....


Last time I was in the the store, the trophy had pride of place on the counter and I'm sure Connie will keep it up for a bit longer...- she's pretty chuffed! so make sure you say "congratulations"!
