Life's a Beach -April 3, 2006

Made it to the beach this weekend for a round of body boarding. The beach had some damage from the recent cyclone, but was in pretty good shape. We went to Main Beach which is about an hour drive from our house. Main Beach is the northernmost beach on the Gold Coast, just above Surfer's Paradise. The waves looked deceptively small...we all got knocked about a bit. Tim's board was actually bent in half, but looks to have survived!

Luckily, IKEA is on the way to the Gold Coast. We had to buy a two person desk for Elliott and me. We were fortunate the desk fit in the space at home because it doesn't seem to be the size we thought it would be according to the catalogue. And we have to go back for one part they didn't have in stock. Is it just us...or has IKEA really gotten bad at quality control and customer service? Just as well it's in a good location.

Posted is the picture I should have put on last week. Went back to Lone Pine Sanctuary - this picture is of a wallabie, not a kangaroo. So cute!
