first morning of winter

While I agree there is beauty in a crisp winter's day, the morning dew heavy on the grass, a roaring fire, hot milo, footy season and the sound of rain on a tin roof; I relish the incredibly pleasant dry season in the tropics. Minimum 23 degrees, maximum 30, offshore breeze, and nothing but blue skies. Sorry to do this to the southerners moving toward the shorter, cooler days of the year, but I welcome your reverie to gaze into the lagoon, imagine your feet in the shallows and the sun warm on your shoulders. Green tea anyone?
