Noosa Fun

Trish and Rainy had a long and tiring day yesterday visiting Eumundi and the market and then heading on to Noosa. The surf Club at Noosa has just been renovated and the balcony area is a great spot to sit, enjoy the view and have a cool drink. The girls mentioned there were a few 'white pointers' on the beach (Lou Ann, this is Australian for "topless sunbathers".) Noosa was quite busy despite it not being a holiday time of year. The recent storms here on the Sunshine Coast have washed nearly all the sand from the beach at Noosa as you can see in the shot below. Extensive sand pumping is going on to get the beach ready for the Easter break. Noosa is famous for its beautiful protected surf beach. Usually all these rocks are covered with sand.


From Noosa they made their way down to Coolum which is probably the best surf beach on the Sunshine Coast. As you can see from this shot the surf is really pumping right now.

We went to a local Thai Restaurant for dinner last night and had a very pleasant meal.

About 5 am today the skies opened up and the rain we had been promised started to fall. And rain it sure did. As I type this at 11 am we have had almost 3 inches of rain and it doesn't look like stopping for some time. I just took this 'screen pic' from the webcam which is situated at Bulcock's Beach. Today isn't good beach weather!
