We went shell hunting and I found some cool ones with holes in them, want to use them for jewelry. First was morning tea, a habit Australians have kept from the British. Yummy biscuits with clotted cream and jam! Afterwards we sat in a tent where some dances were performed by a local tribe adorned with painted white stripes.
Several people talked and gave thanks to all the different organizations that helped with the clean up. The minister for environment, Peter Garrett, was also there, a pretty famous guy. Lunch was excellent as well! I had this pastry with kangaroo goulash, and must say: kangaroo is delicious! It tastes like beef and I liked it. I also had a crocodile sausage roll, crocodile tastes a bit more like seafood.
We went back down to the beach even though it was cooler now. The wind had picked up leaving ripples on the sand and the clouds hid the sun. I changed into my swimsuit and headed into the blue-green water. It was chilly out and definitely warmer in the water. You can see how cold I am!
. I splashed around some in the waves and then changed back into my clothes, loving the warmth of my fleece jacket. We decided to drive a little further up to Noosa Heads from the Kawana Surf Club we were currently at.
Noosa Heads was a lovely smaller beach town! There’s a river running through the city where all the waterfront properties have their own little beaches and boats docked. We went to the state park. Apparently you can see koalas in the wild sometimes here if you go far enough. We walked along the ocean on this path. It was so beautiful!
I took a ton of photos of the turquoise waters. There were some surfers too. At Dolphin Point, I climbed a bit further on the rocky ledge to look directly over into the thundering waves below. The water would spray up into a fine mist. Then we headed back, I saw two kookaburras then. They’re my favorite birds, with their laughing bird call.
