We have had a lovely weekend. An easy drive to Mooloolaba, a tour of the creek and beaches, walk through the reserve to the lighthouse, lunch at the harbour side Top Deck fish bar overlooking the water, check into our very homely but spotless motel (Twin Pines), a kip and await Jeff, Keryn and the children’s arrival. Then off to the stunning Alexandra beach for a not to be forgotten swim in the surf (Yes! Me too!) No sharks, water as warm as bathwater and waves to jump over or come in on the board. After a tour of Mooloolaba via some of the real estate we arrived at Bob and Pat’s (Jeff’s parents) lovely house in Buderim where we were joined for the evening by Marcus (Jeff’s brother) and Kylie. We started off by going to Jeff and Keryn’s renovator home for starters and admired the stunning view from the balcony high in the hills above the coastal plain and resorts. As it grew dark the dancing lights enhanced the scene. Then back to Bob and Pat’s for more great steak, sausages and salad, fruit salad and ice cream – thank you both for a great evening
Slept like logs in the motel and then up to Buderim again to join up with the family to go to Noosa. This was my treat! After dropping in to several of the most beautiful beaches ever we arrived at this lovely resort, with beach, shops and restaurants – a place I had been longing to return to. We found a shady place in the beach reserve for a picnic lunch and then, whilst the men took the boys and girls for a swim, Keryn and I did a tour of the shops. It was hot and humid so we were later glad to get into air-conditioned cars for the return to Sandgate.
Another very big thank you for a super weekend.
