So Friday afternoon, we all meandered down to the coast. (If you're reading this in Google feed reader you might want to jump to the page as the page goes a bit screwy with the way MT4 does things..)
We arrived with enough time to wander down to the beach to play in the sand.
When we got back to the flat there were kangaroos in the front yard
Kerry cooked a nice stir fry for dinner, and we drank beer.
Saturday morning saw Kerry up before dawn to get photos of the sunrise.
And this nice shot of a seagull.
The flat has a bird feeder and visitors are encouraged to feed the birds.
So we did.
There were lots of birds.
After breakfast we all drove up to Myrtle Beach. It's a nice walk to the beach..
And we saw this cool lizard looking at us and catching ants.
Myrtle Beach.. covered in seaweed.
Unfortunately it was very rough, so we couldn't really swim there. So we went back to Maloney's Beach. Had a nice swim there. Saw this nifty hexagon-shaped house on the way back..
This is the view from the flat.. nice huh? :)
After unhealthy lunch of fish and chips, we headed down to the beach again.
Saw this.. thought it was a spider pushing a bug, but it was a bug dragging a spider!
Found a sand worm in the sand (strangely enough!)
And dug a big hole for Jake to play in.
Kerry and I went for a walk up to the end of the beach.
There were more birds back at the flat.
Kerry cooked dinner again Saturday night, this time pasta. And we drank beer.
Sunday morning still more birds. The most so far.
After bacon and eggs for brekky, we went up to the end of Long Beach again to go snorkelling, but couldn't see a thing due to all the crap in the water from the onshore wind.
But Scotty caught a couple of fish, which he let go.
And we dug another hole for Jake.
And then we came home.
A very pleasant and relaxing weekend. And cheap too - the place was only $85/night which we split between two families. Definitely need to go more often wethinks.
