Such an awesome day this was!! Even if certain people thought we were clinically insane for swimming in the sea in winter (really though, it’s Australian winter people!!)
Am homemade some lovely cookies for us all, brought hot chocolate WITH BAILEYS (YUM) and tea. We are so well looked after.
We started the day with a lovely little trip to the Goodwood Farmers market, and the pear men remembered us from the previous week after Joe’s birthday!! We must have made quite an impression, ha ha. Legends.
We then made some lunch and us girls went down to the beach. Was a wicked day, we made sandcastles (A MAHUSIVE ONE, possibly to rival mine and dads) went swimming in the sea, although that may have been what began my cold : (
I prefer to blame Alex, as he was ill first, and not the fact I went swimming in winter.
The hot chocolate was a big hit to warm up after, as was the slightly ominous looking port which I brought along. Frisby was also a winner at warming everyone up and keeping up eye-hand coordination after all the special hot chocolate.
There ended up being a fair few of us down there, despite the abuse on the facebook group calling us all mental.
Two of am’s friends even turned up with garden shovels to help with the sandcastle construction – we even had preliminary drawings!!
When it got dark we had sparklers and put them all around the sandcastle too!! It looked so pretty. (making sure we took them off the beach with us of course)
After changing into warm/dry clothes we headed to our fav Mexican restaurant in Glenelg – Motezumas. Where we had their amazing sangria!! And also lots and lots of food, nachos and refried beans became a sea!
Another wander down the jetty was a wicked end to the day. It couldn’t have been better and I think I’m with am in saying one of the best beach days in Australia.
