It's Sunday night and we just got back from a day at Burleigh Beach. We went by train and bus (about 2.5 hours each way) with Nicole and her two kids. It was a great day, with beautiful weather, of course. Burleigh is at the end of the "Gold Coast" which is pretty tacky and glitzy, reminiscent of the worst of Florida. We were at the end of the glitz just at the edge of a charming little National Park. We walked through the park for a while, and then spent the afternoon on the beach Annie, Nicole and the kids had a great time in the surf. Here's the proof:
Here are some shots from the walk through the park....
And here's Annie at a surfer monument. Apparently it all started here!
And finally here's a look back to all the high rise condos on the beach:
So tomorrow is Monday, and it's back to work. I have to give a big lecture on Tuesday, and the students have already handed in work that needs to be graded. Annie will be back to the classes, and I'll try to go too.
