Had the best day today! Took a drive to Noosa in the morning for a fantastic walk through the national park on the headland. There had been a koala spotted earlier in the day although we didn't get to see it. Did see lots of surfers and some dolphins though! After the walk, we had lunch in one of the food halls in Noosa. Food halls are great here in Oz. Generally, there are a variety of food choices surrounding a central seating area. You choose the food you want, pay for it and then sit and eat wherever you want to. It's great for us as we all have different favourites (mine is sushi!).
We then drove back to Coolum (one of our bestest places). Went for a swim and surf in the ocean... lovely today... water temperature around 24 degrees. We then showered (showers are on the beach which is mighty handy!), changed and then Jeffers cooked us burgers on one of the free barbecues in Tickle Park (love that name!) at the edge of the beach. The barbecues are also a great way to meet Aussies: they are a very sociable bunch and keen to share their cooking tips!
Finally, we plonked ourselves down on our beach chairs to watch a movie screened in the open air...The movies are a free monthly event in Coolum and a great way to relax and spend time with family and meeting new friends. Lovely breeze coming off the ocean and Jeffers even managed to stay awake throughout! Result. Brilliant day with my boys (and great evening with the lime/avocado farmer and his huge family!).
