The Ocean and the Mountains

Near Palm Beach
I took yesterday off work.  Sha and I drove up to Palm Beach and then (after a large fish 'n' chips lunch) returned slowly down the coastline stopping off at various beaches.  Sha prefers the beach with lots of pebbles -- perhaps we should go back to England!

Here come the pelicans!
Today Sha found a lobster in the mountains and bought a gargoyle which is now in our back garden.   I spotted a honey-eater.  The walk was a wonderful as always.  It was wet, the waterfalls were full and one path was closed as you'd have to walk through swamps.


Going a bit crazy walking across to Palm Beach
Huge waves!

Lucky you, eh? to live near such wonderful scenery! Wish we were there with you in the cool, bright winter ... not so different from where we are at the moment, actually (visiting California). Carry on having fun!
