This Easter weekend I have been really busy and I have had a real 'hankering' to go to the beach, like its only just down the road really about 3 kilometers and I never go there any more. I am so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world, and it really pulled me up short a couple of weeks ago when I realised it has been at least 5 years since I have actually gone to the beach to have a swim in the ocean. so I did go to the beach for a bit today ... 1 whole hour woo hoo.
Made several notes to self. Remember the following:
- Mooloolaba has the hardest sand in the whole world
- Do not under any circumstances lay on your tummy because you really do get to smell the sand which smells like the deck of an old fishing trawler!
- Dont go to the beach at 11am on a public holiday
- Dont forget your sunscreen
- Remember to take your camera
- Make sure the battery in your kindle isnt going to run out one page before the end of your book
- Take 2 bottles of water to the beach 1 to drink there and the other to drink when you leave the beach
- Remember not to put aforementioned 2nd bottle in the boot/back of the car for the drive home in the midday heat and previously mentioned Public Holiday
- Enjoy the sand free pool that you dive into as soon as you get home
That is so very funny Gwen!!!!! 5 years, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.
ReplyDeleteHmm....I know Vicky trust me I feel suitably chastened! I am going to make a concerted effort from now on just to make that 1 hour for me
