Peter and Robyn's visit Christmas 2012

Peter and Robyn arrived for a well deserved holiday for the week encompassing Christmas, Boxing day test and Kelley's birthday.  They didn't get much of a holiday, it was rather busy. 

The day after they arrived was a harsh welcome to summer in Melbourne with hot winds and a temperature nearing 40 degrees.  We escaped by heading out to Healsville and enjoying a late celebration of Peter's birthday with a seafood buffet
 
Looking very full and rather hot
