It's only wind ...


Day 5 -  Awoke this morning to gale force winds - I thought the roof was about to lift off.  It blew and blew and blew all day.  Every now and again we would hear something hitting the fence or pinging against a window - nothing broke thank goodness but I kept looking nervously at the large eucalyptus trees at the back of the house and had fingers crossed one of their major branches didn't come down in the pool.  The news told us the wind was in excess of 100km hr.

It sure was windy last night. I couldn't sleep all night! I went to bed at 7am. it was all nice and peaceful then :). I am glad that our neighbours cut a big tree in their backyard two years ago. Otherwise I would have worried a lot. Fortunately we don't have any big one around us now.
