Playgrounds and beaches

Yesterday the day was gloomy.   And two children needed to get out and about and run off a little bit of energy.

First stop was the adventure playground at Port Noarlunga.   And full of children, all needing to be occupied after the excitement of Christmas.

 And there was a lovely modern playground next to the wooden playground.   Jay and Jespa also tried out their new walkie talkies and gave each other complicated instructions to follow.    Lots of fun.

 Walter and Darren having a quiet moment.   Jespa giving Jay some instructions.

 After a lunch of pies, we went on to Moana beach, which was deserted, except for the Surf Life Saving tent.   No swimmers though.

And we found another playground.

 Then back home to watch the third Harry Potter DVD.    Normal positions were taken up on the couches by Walter, Darren, Jay and Jespa.   No photos this time.

And today dawned, with brilliant blue skies.   So we headed off for our cup of coffee at the Star of Greece restaurant/cafe, which also had a brilliant view of Port Willunga.  

And this afternoon Walter and I drove onto the beach, as close to the water as we could manage, jumped out, ran into the water,and pretended to body surf.    Then we jumped back into the car and drove home.   This is called, 'going swimming at the beach, without having to walk far'.
