The Wee Hoose where we're staying at the mo.
Especially for you, Dave - this is our Schlurple Purple set of wheels (Jamie has cleverly captured it with the sun reflecting off it, so you can't see how dirty it is!).
Must admit, we've been pretty lazy these last couple of weeks, chillin' out, having lie-ins. But, we have done a few things, such as surfing a couple of days ago. We had a surf lesson with an ageing hippy surf dude, complete with dreads and beard. But he was a v good teacher and also a bit of a therapist (he told me to have more self-belief and be positive). Jamie managed to stand up first time (jammy git) and I eventually managed to do it a few times. You get a really good buzz when you manage to do it. I'm not sure if I'd do it again though, I actually found it more scary than the skydiving at certain points (big waves, being hit by board, etc). But it was a fun experience overall.
We've been out for a couple of drives to Mapleton Falls and Kondalilla National Parks. See pretty pictures below.
Pretty view over Kondalilla NP.
Jamie in a hollow tree cos he fancied slipping into it!
Me with the view.
The top section of Kondalilla Falls. We couldn't go to the base of the falls as the path was blocked off for safety reasons.
We know what bird this is (for once), it's a Kookaburra. He refused to laugh for us, even though we pestered him for a while. Isn't he fluffy?
Yesterday, we headed down to Noosa Heads Beach to bask in the sun for a while and read some more of my Harry Potter 7 book (what a bloodbath so far, but lovin it anyway). We took Jamie's stunt kite out for its virgin flight, as it got quite windy later on.
Mr J with his new toy.
I nicked his new toy and played with it!
On the way back to the cottage we stopped off at Mt Tinbeerwah (or "Tin o' beer? Yah!" as I call it!) lookout for sunset.
The view over the Sunshine Coast hinterland.
