summer holiday 1

We have been away. 
Up the coast on a quintessential Australian beach holiday.
Swimming with dolphins and bike riding with koalas. 
A goanna on the sand and a shark fin in the water.
The loud ring of cicadas.
Barbeques, old book stores and op shop treasures.

(I'm back online and keen to take a trip around the cyberglobe and visit you all!)

  1. welcome back, summer girl!
    i guess that's what most scandinavians would pray for, christmas followed by summer vacation. i could need some more snow, still.. at least it is raining here. we need it.

    it looks beautiful, those summer moments. now i need to google 'goanna'.

  3. Yes, Sara has a point, and it's still hard to grasp having summer in the middle of winter. I'd give a lot for just one swim in the ocean, all summer past here last year without the river ever reaching a pleasant temperature.

    Missed you, and waited for you - very, very glad you are all back and safe.
    Love, love Lilli

  4. A shark fin sounds really dangerous! But what on Earth is a goanna?

    This weekend I've really enjoyed the winter, but I wouldn't mind at all to sink my toes into the sand, like in your picture! :)

  6. hello everyone.
    so nice to see you all.

    I googled goannas myslef! Basically they are very big lizards. It is always quite strange to see them on the beach. Like sea dinosaurs.
