Polar Bear with Ice

This sculpture is in the garden at the Little River Cafe and Gallery. I chose this picture as we could have done with lots of ice today as we slowly melted in the 32 degrees heat.

We went for an outing to Akaroa, calling in at a friend's to have a look around her wonderful garden in Port Levy on the way. I was too wasted to do anything when we got there, so I lay under a tree in the shade and dozed while Ady and Frankie (his sister who is visiting) explored Akaroa. Then ice creams on the way home were delicious. We thought about popping over the hill to Okain's Bay for a swim, but my travel sickness ruled that one out.
