boomsmas at another beach


It was t-shirt weather at Alexandra Headland / Mooloolaba QLD and we soaked up the sun with glee.
I'll skip over the trouble we had escaping Mount Gambier where fog delayed our plane by two hours so we finally made it to to our apartment in the dark.

Next morning we woke to The View!

Looking across to Maroochydore


There are always surfers in the water and we spent a lot of time watching them - to the extent of getting sunburnt while Mount Gambier suffered extreme cold, wind, rain and hail. We certainly chose the right week.
 
David went fishing and caught a nice snapper which we shared with my sister Jennifer and her husband Peter. They often go to the Sunshine Coast and encouraged us to give it a try.
 
 
 
We did the usual tourist things, ate some excellent meals and luxuriated in being warm.
David and Peter went fishing: Peter caught a grassy sweetlips - what a great name!   Jennifer and I did had massages and attended a champagne fashion show at Blue Illusion where we indulged in a little gentle shopping.

 
 
Only a week - but well worth it!
