Surf School

You can learn to surf any day of the week and pretty much every day of the year here in Noosa.

First you must practice on the sand.....and learn a few of the rules of the surf ...i e..do not drop in!!!

Once you know the basics....the rest is up to you to have a great time. The Instructors are always close by to encourage and help you out.....

There were two schools at the beach this morning.Both had lots of students.The instructors are helpful and very patient.

These kids were having a ball....

Thumbs up for that ride!!!!

This year our Christmas decorations have a bit of a beach theme to them.
I threw a few baubles and shells together and came up with this.
Actually it took me a little while to get the combination just right but I am really happy with the effect!!
We are not having a Christmas tree this year,just decorations and lights scattered around the place.
What do you think?

Counting down...

How many more sleeps?

Pudding Lane

Well at least I know what we are having for dessert on Christmas Day!!!

Delicious home made Christmas Pudding made by "PUDDING LANE" puddinglane.com.au  .We bought this one a couple of weeks ago at the farmers market.The log shape is something new.I hope is tastes as good as it smells!!

 ....and I'm hoping our Christmas Dinner will look something like this.....maybe we will add a couple of dozen oysters as well !!!!
...and some Champagne!!!

Goodbye Melbourne

I have had a lovely time here in Melbourne and also back home in Lorne.
I took this photo on my last day in Melbourne.It was late afternoon in Collins Street and the Firemen were attending a false alarm "fire" in the building behind us.
I just liked the way the sun was filtering through the trees.
