Annual Noosa Trip

It was our 3rd annual trip to Noosa with friends. The weather could not have been better. Fantastic company as well. Kids played. Adults relaxed and caught up. There was lots of boarding at the beach and swimming at the pool. The Broncos and the Cowboys played in the Grand Final. It was an awesome game with the Cowboys winning the Golden Point.

Riverfire

To cap off our holiday, we went to watch Brisbane Riverfire in person. I am so glad we did. The airshow before hand was awesome. I couldn't believe how loud the jets were and watching the helicopters maneuver right in front of us. EL wasn't a fan of the noise but we just covered her ears and she seemed to adjust quickly. DB loved seeing the jets! Brisbane put on a fantastic show! What a way to end our trip!





Roadtrip-Sand Blow

 When we checked into our place in Rainbow, the manager said to check out top of the hill. And in my reading of the information book in the room and checking online saw there was a sand blow not too far from us. So about 30 minutes before sunset we set off to find this place. We didn't really know what we were looking for or where we were going. We followed the only path we could see for about 10 minutes and when we rounded the last corner I couldn't believe my eyes. A giant hill completely made of sand. We picked out spot out to watch the sun set. Breathtaking! 
 A couple days later we came back with our boards to do some sand boarding. We tried the small hill 1st but it wasn't working out. So off to the other side where the giant hill was worn down into a smooth surface for boards to fly across.
