Amongst the vines

Yesterday we spent a delightful Good Friday picnicking with family and friends on an oval set amongst vines down in the Southern Vales. Flossie had plenty of playmates and ran ALL day! [No sound or sign of her this morning, she's curled up fast asleep!!] We picnic here every Easter, and every year I take a heap of photos which takes me quite a while to process. This year I took a heap of photos of the Easter Egg Hunt where tinsel wrapped eggs and other forms of mini chocolate bars are spread over the oval, and at the word the children - with something to gather them in - run,run,run and collect as many as they can; a very popular event.
