Staying at Julia's Shack

Annaliese's friend Julia had booked her family's shack by the beach at Carrickalinga this weekend. So Annaliese and I came over and joined her and her sister Liz, Guy, and Anna. And Julia's dog Baya.


This is Julia hard at work on some marking - she's a Biology teacher.


I went for a drive with Annaliese, Guy and Anna. We drove to a couple of coves at Second Valley and Rapid Bay.

Here is a dinkum aussie boozer bird

We stayed the night at the Shack and went for a walk with Baya in the morning before taking Guy and Anna back to the airport for their flight back to Melbourne.

Boogie boarding at Moana beach

This weekend Annaliese and I met up with a couple of Annaliese's friends -Tony and Skye. We saw Adam Hills - a stand up comic and tv star - at the Thebarton theatre, then went for a drink. The next day we decided to chill out so walked down to Moana beach.

We had a tent with us that springs into shape when you take it out of the bag, useful as a wind and sun shade. This is what it looks like looking out.


Later on Greg and Keryn joined us.

Here Greg showing me how to hold the boogie board.


And here are some shots Keryn took of us using the boogie boards. Note, I'm the one in the water, not the one riding the wave.
