It
definitely feels like we're on a seaside holiday! Today we went sightseeing
to the surf beaches, watching the locals ride the waves while tucking
into a picnic on the beach. Australians love to get to the coast at
the weekend, and on a Friday and Saturday night the camp sites fill
up with people leaving the big cities for a couple of days. Mostly their
time is spent surfing (under 30's) or fishing (over 30's) – or at least
that's what the men do. We haven't been able to work out what the women
do, as they don’t seem to get out in the same numbers – in fact, we
mostly see them looking after the children while the men are out doing
their thing. Australia sometimes seems to represent England 30 years
ago! But as you can see in the photo, we're getting out all together,
and all seeing the same things.
