7th September 2012

Ok, as promised, some pics of the little ones. This was back form September 7th (so the computer says). We went to,,, I'm jiggered if I can remember. Ah, I know, up north to Anna Bay. Astonishingly, Klaus and the Kiddies hadn't actually been, and in fact I (with my fantastic sense of geography and direction) think I got Anna Bay confused with Nelson Bay. I was actually aiming at the nice fish and chip shop up there. Well, it was just as well. We had a great time. A bit windy but a beautiful spring day, no-one around, and we stopped at the one and only eatery in Anna Bay where I once again had a bacon and egg roll. (I may remember nothing of roads, location, names, but I remember the greasy spoon cafe on a dingy road that served me a tasty bacon and egg roll over two years ago).

 

Here's Lara and Arizona on the beach with a washed-up Port Jackson shark egg case. Delight!

 

 

Windy picninc, with fish and chips and burgers. I kick myself that I missed the bit where the crazy man chased his kids round and round the oval threatening them with a dead fish they found on the grass, yelling 'Mr Fishy, Mr Fishy' or something or the sort. Perhaps Clingons were involved, too.

 

Rocky walk along the beach. Arizona is endlessly patient with helping Lara climb over things.

'King of the Rocks' seat, randomly put there by ... Poseidon, I guess. Great look out to sea. How could one resist?

 

Arizona and Lara on the 'seat'

 

Fantastic wave-watching spot...

 

... more than a little alarming for some...

 

...and drenching for those who step too near!

 

 

How Abiela managed to navigate those rocks in flip-flops is a mystery, but it seemed to pose no trouble at all to her. Oh, I should explain (before signing off) that Coco and Flash were at a birthday party, hence the reduced number of kids. With that, I have to go. Nearly 7 am, which is when I have to leave to get Lara to Oosh, and come back on time to get to work. She has her school disco today, school term nearing the end and all sorts of craziness coming up.
