Lazy Down Unda

Hi all,

Sorry for not posting much this month. We have been a bit slack.

We went camping a week (or so) ago to Noosa North Shore. It is about 2 hours north of Brisbane on the Sunshine Coast. Morgan and Kate have friends that own a little plot of land in the Noosa National Park and they were gracious enough to invite a bunch of us up for the weekend to camp.

In short it was great. The spot was perfect. It has a small concrete slab poured for setting up your camping chairs with a fire pit at the far end. Half of the slab is covered with a roof and has a small sink and counter for preparing food. They also have a large water drum for catching rain water and outdoor shower. All the frills of outdoor living.

The best thing is that the spot is only about 30 meters to the beach. Oh yeah!!!! And what a beach. This beach runs about 60 km up the eastern coast of Australia. The only drawback is the traffic.... yes I said traffic. It is legal to dive on this beach with a 4x4. So you have to keep an eye out for them as they pass. Aside from that it was perfect.

Here are some pics!


Shamus and Breagha were pretty excited to go camping. On the Wednesday prior to leaving they had to sleep in their sleeping bags on their bedroom floor.


Catching some early morning sun. No hats and sunnies ... yet.


Breagha would entertain herself for the whole day at the beach. She is in her own world ... all she needs is a shovel, a bucket, an ocean and tonnes of sand.


The rest of the gang just "maxin and relaxin"





It wasn't just 4x4s tearing up the sand.

As always you have to share your campsites.
