We let sleeping dogs lie at our temporary residence on a canal at Burleigh Waters to walk to the beach. Well, the real purpose for the walk was to have lunch at one of our faves, Wahoo Fish Taco & burgers on the GC highway. :)

Sunrise views from the hill.
Lunch at Palm Beach SLSC. Then it was back up the hill to nap until Sanctuary Market supper time. We usually avoid Surfers during the whole "schoolies" season, but we are here a little bit early for a river cruise (next post). Most of the teens were not up yet, but we looked at the beach stage & facilities, & wandered around. Even found a new shop that offered 'poutine'!
The Tuesday AM Park Volunteers treated ourselves to a Surfers Paradise Nerang River lunch cruise. A very enjoyable hour & a half cruising slowly ogling the houses of the rich & sometimes famous. Captain Pete used an informative & humourous commentary throughout the sailing that docks at the end of Cavill Avenue and tours up to the Broadwater.
My title is the title of a David Wilcox song that I really like. Google it if you will! Just a morning trip to get some lady-finger bananas from my favorite Tweed Valley farmers, and for Jan to see the selection at a huge plant sale.
Bilinga beach in the off-season. My kind of population density!
Interesting display at one of the big op-shops just south of the border. My interpretation is One Stop Shopping - wedding gown & divorce party dress together. Good omen kind of sky this morning. Great way to start a koala day. See the CWS page for those pictures.
I did not see the storm clouds coming our way before I left the house & got to the other side of the hill. I decided I did not want to risk getting caught out in a downpour, so instead of hiking down to the beach I walked down the also steep path to look at all the new construction on the pool side of the ridge estates complex.
I got home dry & watched the storm from our balcony. Bonus treat - intense rainbow when the sun came out. Spoiler alert - one picture of a jumping spider. |
