Today we drove 2 hours north to Peregian Beach on the
Sunshine Coast. The sun was shining and the beach was amazing – water crystal
clear and the sand soft and squeaking under foot! I still have to pinch my arm
sometimes when I get to experience the beauty of nature here in Australia. Europe
has some pretty stunning places and occasionally you can find a quiet spot to
enjoy all by yourself. This is of course totally exaggerated, but Australia
is just so breathtaking on a massive scale, and there is hardly anyone around!
Just take a look at this beach. It is Sunday and school holidays, but still it
is not crowded at all. Everyone is spread out I guess – it runs for miles.
Kids surfing on the sand
This Surf Life Saver is heading to work with his gear and his cooler bag. I wonder if he is thinking: "I really don't want to go to work today... or life's a beach"! They do a great job of keeping us all safe in the water!
Great things to do at the beach: play in the sand and eat ice cream! My boys Johannes and Elias (the two blondes) and their friend Jai.
When you are done with the beach, you can conveniently go and have a shower here - do you see the shower in the background... or does your eyes stick to the sign in the foreground like mine did... and then you decide to wait with the shower till you get back home....?
