Arrived ! Didn’t take long at all, even with a short stop to look at the ocean and have a paddle. Saw a couple of jelly fish too.
Been busy with the family so yesterday’s blog is today’s’. Been for a couple of nice walks, down to the beach and then this morning up to Hastings Point itself where we saw an osprey carrying a large fish.

Also saw a couple of whales having a splash about and some more birds on the creek.
We were treated to a drive up to Queensland today, where the time is an hour different from here in NSW. Had a fabulous lunch at the Surf Club in Coolangatta where we had to show ID/passports to confirm that we weren’t from the area. Richard had Barramundi and chips, I had coconut covered deep fried prawns and calamari with a salad and cashew nuts, all beautifully fresh. The rest of the family had a mixture of steak and fish.
There was a fantastic view of the Gold Coast from the dinning area; unfortunately it was very windy and so there was a lot of spray in the air making the view a little misty.
After lunch we made a couple of stops on the way home, one of which was the border between Queensland and NSW. One foot in QL and one in NSW and your watch goes round in circles!!! NOT. Lol. Our other stop was at Point Danger, an air sea rescue look out and a lighthouse with some lovely views and a potted history of the place.



Now at home with a lovely cup of tea,
talking and catching up.
