Surf's up!


After a work-enforced hiatus, we're finally back and blogging. Of course this means that we have to re-trace our steps back in time a little, because we certainly haven't been idle for the past 2 months...


So, let's go back to Easter, when Eli and I spent a week at Noosa owing to a quirk in timetabling that had made three different public holidays collide at the end of April. We enjoyed our typical fun in the sun, with plenty of runs on the sandbank, but this time we also hit the surf beach with a bit more gusto. On one day in particular, we jumped in the boat and headed down towards the main beach at Noosa (the road traffic was horrendous, so it was good to approach the beach by boat!), with our boogie board in tow. We moored at the park, crossed the main street and hit the beach.

Eli and Alora were pretty keen to catch some waves, but in typical Noosa style there wasn't much on offer. We did however, manage to get them both onto a few small waves, as you can see in these photos:





For those of you that know how much I like catching waves (mostly just bodysurfing without a board), these are promising signs indeed. I think next summer is going to be big!
