i'll be watching, will you?

Australia Day, and Last Weekend

Australia day was a relaxing day of drinking Aussie beer, listening to live music, and watching fireworks.

Last weekend we had a very rainy beach get-away on the sunshine coast. These pictures were taken on the beach after our restaurant had a black out and we were forced to leave. I think we made the best of the night by an impromptu photo shoot on the beach.

Bowling night!!!

The score!

Jealous??

The view from my bedroom window. It's not the most glamorous pool in the world, but it is dreamy after a sweaty day at work, and even sweatier walk home in 33 degrees weather.

Look what's happening again...

Friday Night at the Jade Buddah

Christmas and New Years break

Over Christmas Steve and I had 10 days off. So we decided to take a little road trip down the coast. First we camped two nights in Nambucca Heads. It is located Half way between Brisbane and Sydney. Great place! Tried Surfing for the first time, loved every minute, even though it was exhausting. Other than that, we explored, relaxed and had fun beach time.

Then we travelled onward and went to New Castle. We stayed at a friends apartment that had the below picture as his view from his living room, and bedroom as well. The place actually has three balconies.
Main Beach

Then we spent two nights with friends in the Hunter Valley at the Cypress Lakes Golf resort.
Did some wine tasting, relaxing, swimming etc.

Wineries

Then we camped three nights in Mylstom. This is where we spent Christmas Eve and Day, and boxing day. Santa even came to visit on his fire truck. It was a great spot, the beach was on one side of our campsite, and the river on the other. However the surf wasn't the best, the waves broke right onto the shore.
