Day of Rest

Sounds strange to need a day of rest when you’re on the road, or even when you’re in one place for a week or so. But some days it just makes sense, especially when your view is of a white sandy path framed by swaying palm trees leading to an insanely soft white beach and beyond that the warm gentle lapping of the green blue water.

So today we just enjoyed that gorgeous view, sitting under the awning with a lovely sea breeze keeping us comfortable.

I started the day with an early morning sunrise on the beach - a great way to wake up. There are always at least half a dozen people on the beach at that time, all waiting for the magic to begin and light up the sky.

Yesterday there was barely a whisper of a breeze so we hopped in the air conditioned car for a drive to keep cool.

We spent a couple of hours today playing cards, chatting and of course eating brekkie and lunch outside. Eventually Gadi went off for a quick walk with the dog and then later took the car down to South Mission Beach to walk there. Cadbury and I went to walk and then sit at the beach, enjoying the changing colours in the sky as the afternoon got later. We chatted (yes Cadbury too!) to some people sitting on the beach and some guys who were tinkering with an old catamaran.

We walked down to one of the restaurants on the beach for dinner and on the way home we walked along the beach, with a full moon lighting up the water bright as day.

Time to head indoors, chat to one of our kids on the phone, shower away the sweat and sand and chill out.
