Stradbroke Island


Hiding from the wind

Last weekend we took the weather man at his word and ventured to Stradbroke Island for some whale watching. The wind, however, was much higher than predicted (by higher, I mean, 40 knots) so for the most part all we saw was white caps and other people also freezing their tits off!

In the end we saw 1 whale, had a very tasty lunch and a nap in the sun. A pleasant day if not what we had originally banked on.

There is also a rare photo of another large mammal sighted on the day. The jokes about twins have already been done, so keep them to yourself.
