Gary and Adele are house-sitting for friends in Caringbah, a community 50 minutes by train south of the city center. We would call it a suburb…the Australians call it part of “The Shire.”
Yesterday we had a “Big Breakkie” in Cronulla, strolled past the shops and hung out on the beaches, enjoying one of the first really lovely warm days of the season….even though the leaves on the trees are just beginning to come out!
It was fun to return to this pretty seaside community, having stayed here with Pam and Jeff Joyce back in the Christmas season of 2005!
The first “sun-bakers” were “laying out” out on the beach, and the esplanade was busy with kids on the beginning of a school break, joggers and families. In the water, boys boogie boarded in the surf near shore. Some wet-suited surfers showed off on some small waves off a bit of a point, while the Surf Rescue teams trained in boats and bombed around the bays on zodiacs. Nothing like a Saturday in the Shire!
