Symbols and Naked people


The gang....


The beach just outside our rental house

And, then...we stumbled upon a "nudie" beach!  I covertly took some photos..






Ah....nothing like sitting in the sun, reading a good book and getting sand up your butt....

Daybreak at Royal National Park - more pictures








As usual, I only had my crappy camera, as in my haste, at daybreak, couldn't locate the Nixon.   But, my vow is, never to leave the Nixon behind....New Zealand Milford Track hike coming up over Christmas!

















Seaweed





 





Time to head back....

Royal National Park - Bundeena NSW 2

We took Barb for a late afternoon walk, in hopes to catch a glimpse of a Wallibee or a Kangaroo.  Usually, they are hoping about everywhere, but, of course, when you want to see one, they are no where to be found.


But, as usual, they are glorious tropical birds everywhere....This is a "Galah" bird. If someone call's you a "Galah", even though they are beautiful birds, don't take it as a compliment. They are calling you stupid. :-)






Sulfur Crested Cockatoos...


Momma and her ducklings...



Time for some fishing...(don't know this guy)
This is the part of the water where we went kayaking earlier in the day, but, did not have access to our cameras....









All that walking, now it's time for a fabulous feast!





Appetizers - what a masterpiece!



Roasted lamb...what a treat!



And now...desert!   And I wonder why my clothes don't fit!  Umm...



Aussie Possum!
