seal rocks the finale.














it's been a long time coming. but here it is!

our final 24 hours in seal rocks in pictures. 1. because i'm lazy and 2. because they're nice.

the last day was a flurry of activity, kidlet entertaining, packing up our treasures and adventuring to the lighthouse.

and all topped off with a quarter pounder on the way home! YES!

what a flippin' lovely getaway.

seal rocks day two.

part deux.

Saturday in Seal Rocks was sunny. Super-duper sunny.

We went for (somewhat misguided... totally my fault) walks to try and find the Sugarloaf Point lighthouse. Sugarloaf Point is pretty much the loveliest sounding place name ever.

We did lots and lots of semi-nude playing on the beach. Including lots of cuddling, kicking, lots of burying and a little bit of nudie body-surfing.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Thank you for letting me have a go of your kidlets (and husby) for papparazi purposes Miss E xx
so we've done une, we've now done deux, all that's left is trois x

seal rocks day one.

 so, as i'm writing this, the guilt is starting to creep in for not going to the gym tonight, but i can't wait. i have to begin to share these memories with you right.this.very.second. part I of III.

Friday memories:
(some good, some bad, some excellent)
  • Rising early to eat raisin toast and watch pre-dawn flintstones episodes
  • Driving on the freeway listening to talkback radio
  • sleeping on the freeway while my boyfy was driving up the freeway listening to talkback radio
  • Getting phone calls from the lovely Miss Beetleshack to let us know that our holiday destination wasn't clear, it was in fact, underwater (sob, sob, sob!)
  • Sitting in the sun at Buladelah, drinking coffee, scouring papers for news of the floods, eating sausage rolls, and making friends with some lovely locals who shared news of new puppies on their farm
  • Hunting through the hardware store for last minute camping supplies (...and to waste time with fingers tightly crossed that Plomer was still on the cards)
  • Last minute destination changes with exceptional results
  • Adventures to Smiths Lake
  • Walks on the beach
  • Hangin' out with my fave babes, Zeph and Olive
  • Little surfer dudes
  • Nerve-settling red wine with camp burgers as the sun set





     stay tuned for the next thrilling installment of the winter vacation! bet you can't wait!

    happy birthday queen lizzie!

    did you enjoy your long weekend this weekend?

    i/we certainly did. it's such an amazing thing the long weekend, it means you get the best of both worlds. you get to spend time at home, like normal weekends, slothing about, being lazy.  

     then you get a whole other weekend tacked on the end to use however you wish!

    we used our bulk sized weekend to watch things, bake things, eat things, visit dear friends and watch some queen's birthday football (good old collingwood forever!)

    saturday according to instagram


    today was a nice day for strolling and drinking piping hot coffee and then retreating back inside, conceding defeat to winter's wiley ways.

    hope your long weekend is delicious and toasty x x
