Sunday at the coast

The combination of Sunday’s gorgeous weather, plus my desire to obtain another Hard Rock Cafe pilsner glass for work (after mine was broken by the cleaners), made for a perfect excuse to head to the coast on Sunday.

Surfers Paradise beach

We stopped off at Al and Suz’s place for morning tea on our way through. We also got to meet Al’s Mum who is out for a four week visit from Scotland!

Shortly after, we hit Surfer’s Paradise – oh my, how long has it been since I was there? Much has developed, and yet at the same time, nothing has changed. The food at the HRC was up to it’s usual standard – I can highly recommend both the pulled pork and beef brisket sandwiches – they’re awesome!

Oscar at the beach

We strolled down the mall to the beach to check out the Surfer’s Paradise festival, however there wasn’t too much happening – in fact, most of the stalls had already packed up and gone home for the day. Still, Oscar seemed to enjoy our stroll along the boardwalk, and a happy little man makes for happy parents!

I come from a long line of biters, and — I’m not going to lie to you — those things look lethal.
