What a weekend! I don't know how we do it, but once again the MOB jagged awesome weather and some nice little surfermum waves for our recent get together.
Friday saw The Grommie, Annie, Bel and yours truly try for some gnarly little waves at Cellito. It was an exercise in frustration mostly but we didn't let it dampen our spirits.
The highlight of the day was watching Grommie dance her way out of a giant march fly attack! The twist on the end put her flat on her arse and kept us laughing for the remainder of the trip. (Don't worry - she was laughing too!) As Grommie nursed her deriaire with a cup of tea late Friday arvo, the remaining intrepid adventurers paddled out on to the lake for some flat water action. We were silly. There's even video evidence of our silliness since Annie took the waterproof camera out there too.
Here's a still shot from the house.... see us down there?
On saturday we ventured down to Seal Rocks and had the most magnificent day playing in some neat little waves off the point at beach no. 1. Here is the view looking west toward the beautiful headlands and forest;
It's just gorgeous down there, I'd forgotten how good it was.
We headed back down there after lunch cause we just couldn't get enough of it! A lovely fisherman took this photo of us at the end. He commented that we got some great waves out there! How good is that?!
You shoulda seen the food we ate! OMG it was good! Salads, feta, pesto, olive sour dough, chocolate, champers, smoked salmon, and lashings of butter! Just divine. Sorry there is no photo of food - it was just too good not to eat. Next time I will take photos. Promise.
Bel and I headed down for a lakeside drinky-poo on Saturday night. The view from the rock:
Later in the night there was a reunion of old friends:. Naughty Grommie.
And this is a photo of my foot, for no particular reason. Belinda took it.
All in all, it was a wondrous weekend. Thank you Mobsters! You are beautiful and you make life fun.
SM
