Agnes Water Qld August 13 2015

Six days since the last post? That's what happens when you chill out completely!

Here's a typical day in what we've come to call "home".

Me up at 7am for a 5km walk along the beach, Judy catching up on her beauty sleep. I have to laugh though, it's not exactly cold here, even at 7am and I find swimmers adequate whilst others think track suits, fleecy tops and scarves are required. One woman even had gloves on... By the time i get back toward 815, the sun is decidedly warm and a swim in the ocean is required to cool off.

We pull the chairs out into the sunshine and eat breakfast of cereal and fruit, washed down with a cup of tea.

Maybe read a book, do a crossword, do a sudoku, fiddle about on the computer.

Another swim to freshen up, followed by a coffee at the nice cafe just down from us inside the van park. Decisions, decisions. Do we sit in their lounges and look out over the beach, or go back to our van, sit in our seats and look out over the beach?

A bit of a wander about, maybe up to the shops and back, and then lunch. More decisions: eat in or eat out? It's running 50/50 at this point.

After lunch it's time for some quiet time and maybe some more reading etc. Judy might decide to paint, or play on the pewter or grab nap. I have been doing more beach walking: I must be up to about 10km a day.

Come 3pm, do we have arvo tea? No we go for another swim and maybe dry off in the sun and then maybe go exploring or drink more coffee, or sip a wine at the 1770 hotel overlooking the estuary.

When the dinner question is decided, maybe another walk around to the shops for this 'n that and back for a bit of a rest. We ate out one night at the 1770 hotel, beautiful meal but a bit special, so most nights Judy cooks something special in the van. She can knock out almost anything from a full roast to pizza. Ah, pizza, that's what I can smell now, and I'm sure i can hear the wine chilling in the refrigerator.

Here's a last snap of the view from the caravan. That pink ting in the waves was intriguing me, I went down to try and capture the colour and the action.

Just hate to go, but then again, we've already booked again for next year.
