Saturday we headed south to another beatiful beach I've mentioned before. This is the beach where I spent my birthday and Mother's Day. It's great to get to make an excuse to revisit these incredible places only a few hours from home. This one is only one hour south.
We walked up to the lighthouse here, too, and then spent time with the many roos. One particularly large male is there each time we visit. You can hear the jokes and songs that Pat, at least, sings when we're near this big guy. He is, let's say, well-endowed.
So picture Karen focused carefully on the roo with her video camera taking footage when one of us cries out some randy comment on his manliness. Karen stops the camera, waits till we've finished, and tries again. Now Pat chimes in with an adult version of 'Do Your Ears Hang Low.' Again, Karen stops the camera and waits. By the third time she laughs and yells, "You guys! This is for my Kinders back home! Stop!" Woops. It's just difficult not to comment!
We had a great picnic and then lounged on the sand some more. A beautiful, perfect day.
We did hurry home, however, to change clothes and scurry off to dinner at the boss'! Glenn and Jeanette had us all for dinner, cooked beautifully by his daughter Kate, save for his homemade pasta. It was, as they say, a Big Night, and we all thoroughly enjoyed the Wild Turkey - I mean, the evening. The Americans were fading by 10:30 p.m., but the Aussies were still going strong. The girls were learning what we've learned: just go with it and don't expect to get home any time soon! Tons of fun!
I still think it's hilarious that I have the car keys since I'm the designated driver, and all 12 of the others, who are NOT designated drivers, are telling me very loudly and emphatically how to back out of the driveway! I am simply collecting the most wonderful memories, and how amazing to have friends to share them with!
