Harrold

This is Harrold.
He sits at the entrance to the National Park and lots of tourists have their photo taken with him.Often, he is holding a sprig of gum leaves in his paw.
He was a bit of an identity apparently and was quite old but sadly he died from a dog attack a few years ago.
 
The plaque reads......In memory of Harrold who died of a dog attack in Noosa National Park.

Tea Tree Bay

Yesterday we walked to Tea Tree Bay in the beautiful Noosa National Park.It is a really beautiful spot and there were not too many people about, thankfully, after the madness of crowds over the weekend.
Murray got some great little waves and I read my book.

Green lace

We pass this tree every time we do the river walk. It's a gorgeous old tree,not very big but quite old I think and it has the most beautiful ferns growing all over it's branches making it look like its covered in green lace.

Noosa Triathlon

Today is the Noosa Triathlon.
As I am writing this all those' fit and healthy' people will already be out there pounding the bitumen hoping to better their time of last year.
This event is huge here and although it doesn't really interest me I do admire all the effort that goes into the whole show.
These pics are from last years event.
p.s. How about that magnificent poinciana tree in the last shot.It is all one tree...fabulous!!!.And just as an aside,the poincianas are not flowering yet this year.
