I'm baaaaack! Did you miss me?
We had a fantastic time on the Sunshine Coast. I ate waaaaaaaay too many things that I shouldn't eat, but hey, it was a holiday!
We spent some time on the beach on the first afternoon, then went to Australia Zoo (Steve Irwin's place) on Thursday. It was the first time we've been and we really enjoyed it, although it was stinking hot while we were there and walking between some of the exhibits was exhausting. Friday we went to a place called Bellingham Maze which has a hedge maze and a few other mazes and an 18 hole putt putt (miniature golf) course. It was fun. It was back to the beach in the afternoon, although the beach was officially closed as a swell from Cyclone Evan, which has been thumping Fiji, had reached the coastline and the water was too dangerous to swim in. However, Little Man and I stood in the shallows up to our knees and had a great time.
We ate out every night which is such a treat for me. We had some fantastic meals. I went a bit crazy on the desserts, but who cares? I'll put photos up on FB later.
I hope none of my American friends have had trouble with the bad weather I was hearing about and I hope you're all enjoying your preparations for Christmas!
