Some of our children love playing in the ocean, others are a little more cautious! There's a patrolled beach area just 100m away from our holiday house at Mermaid Beach on Queensland's famous Gold Coast. The highrise buildings of Surfer's Paradise are just along the beach to our north.
This afternoon I watched from our front deck as the children fished and flew kites. Late in the afternoon the beach was "busy" with many people out enjoying a walk or jogging in the cool of the day. One fellow was kite surfing.
How delightful it was to take an evening stroll with my six daughters, enjoying the lights and returning just before dark. We are all loving our location, it's even better than we had hoped.
Off to bed here now, more plans for tomorrow, weather permitting.
PS I'm so grateful for internet access at our holiday house but it's very slow much of the time....

Happy holiday to you all.
How lovely that you can sit on the deck and drink in that view!!
What a lovely place to vacation! It looks like you are all enjoying yourselves and having a nice time. I hope you get to spend a lot of time with your children before they leave for Uni.
It is much nicer down there than in Surfer's Paradise. Great to have a house right on the beach without having to cross a road. The kids must love it.
Mermaid beach is so lovely! How wonderful to be right on the beach!
We've been looking for an affordable place to stay down there.
