I managed to get a ride in between the 2 massive, incredibly destructive floods that hit our region. The sun came out! The sky was blue!
It's incredible just how much that can make a person smile after months of endless rain and un-fathomable (pardon the pun...) floods.
As such, this is mostly just the ride, with not too much of me blethering on - I hope you enjoy :)
