West Head lookout

A very Good Friday!


Tuesday, 1 November 2011

Us, recently.

 Tumbalong Park - all new and very exciting
 Our old haunt - Taronga Zoo - being members has meant this is about visit number 12.  We pretty much find something new to see each time.
 My little girl just before she turned 3!
 Boating for the 1st time in Lane Cove National Park

Wild and free in Lane Cove NP
 Rower and 'chief helpers'!
 Isla as a festival goer!  Crave food festival.
 The amazing and beautiful Botanical Gardens, we spent the day, played, lazed, ate and drank a little....
 Oh...those eyes...
The sign says it all - Night Noodle Markets, the 2nd of two visits for us.  We all like the noodles!
 All of us.  Happy days....
 An early rise and breakfast at West Head lookout, great vantage point over the Northern beaches.
 Looking out over 'Summer Bay'.
 Our pet for the day, Larry, who had been absent mindedly sunbathing in the children's wheelbarrow.
 Quite a hot one, lunch outside, the first of many
 Longreef beach and my little sun worshippers...Love the lagoon here
 Dee Why for tea!
Rockpooling and exploring around the coves at Dee Why.

So life is getting back to normal after a busy time for us, now we are busy doing lovely things again!

West Head Lookout

Today in the midst of looking for a new place to live we visited a little peace of gorgeousness called West Head Lookout in the Ku-ring-gai National Park.

It is known for being a good place to see the whales migrating, we didn't see any today but we sat and looked out over the ocean which was like a mill pond and watched the boats moving around the headland.  We were very high up and could see over to Palm Beach and around to the beaches on the Central Coast.  This afternoon has been one of those days that really makes me think how amazing the environment is in Australia and wow, we get to see this all the time.  We discover new things every weekend that we get out and about and I really love that.

 Not sure about these sunglasses....Andy says I look like Maverick....hmmmm!
