As all good winter breaks should start we spent the morning at the beach. On our walk to the beach we were greeted with a flock of flamingoes, so near, but not near enough to get the photo.

A trip to the Kabeljauws beach isnt quite complete without a spin on the merry-go-round.. Sadly it appears to be broken.

I love the openness of this beach, so much beauty all around

The kids dug holes and made tunnels and competed to see who could make the deepest hole….

And then filled the joined holes to make a lagoon of sorts…

After a peaceful morning on the beach we headed to Fifth Wave Coffee for coffee and games

And the games continued at home

We added to our outdoor games and bought a Frisbee. Gramps large open garden is awesome to play swingball, Frisbee, soccer and cricket.

I think it was the perfect start to our holidays and as I lie here listening to the roar of the sea I am once again reminded of how lucky we are to be in this space and make memories together.
