Warm weekend

Sue and I had a quiet day at home on Saturday - Caroline, Sophie and Sophia went to Sydney with 2 of Caroline's Aussie friends and they went up the Sydney Tower and did some more shopping. Rebecca went back to the Easter Show with a friend's family and Laura was working. Sue had also twisted her ankle at the beach the previous day, so she needed to rest it today.

The weather has been warm and sunny again over the weekend so Sunday was 'beach day' (although Rebecca had organised a cinema trip and shopping with a friend). We dropped Caroline and her friends at Freshwater Beach and then we parked at South Curl Curl, which is the next beach to the north. We then had a leisurely stroll along the beach and around the headland to 'Freshie' where we spent a few hours on the beach and in the sea - bumping into the girls amongst the waves.

This is Caroline's favourite beach and we hadn't been to this one before - it's quite a small bay and the beach shelves out quite gently, although it still generates some big waves and strong currents. It's been good that the sea is still quite warm at the moment, especially now that the pool is pretty much out of action due to the colder nights making the temperature drop too much.
