Today is Australia Day (similar to 4th July to my USA friends). We spent the day with Aunty Shell, Uncle Michael and Nanna. It was lovely that we all had the day off. Very unusual for us!
It rained in the morning and we hung out at home. We had a nice lunch and had fun at our home.
Later in the afternoon it cleared up enough for us to head to the beach. We took the boys for their first walk out on the rocky headland.
We climbed up on this massive rock, it’s about the height of the roof of a house.

After the beach we headed over the hill to the bay. We had an ice-cream and walked out on the wharf.
And looked at the crabs running on the mud at low tide.
We had a wonderful Australia Day.
It was an especially nice day for Nanna Shell and I. Nanna and her family used to own a house near this beach. When Shell and I were kids we would come here for weekends and school holidays. We swam at the beach, explored the rock pools, walked out on the rocky headlands and went over the hill to the bay for an ice-cream. All the things we did today with our boys are a reminder of what we used to do when we were kids. It was great fun!
