Last week we experienced strong winds, in fact gale force at times, with widespread damage. Many trees blew down, plus branches everywhere and loss of electricity in some suburbs. And dust everywhere.
I drove Scott and Jespa to the beach in order to catch some big waves.
Scott could hardly carry the body board in the strong wind. And Jespa had to run after his board when it blew away.
We were the only people on the beach. I sat in the car of course and watched the sand blow across beach.
No chance of being swept out to sea at Aldinga Beach. Scott and Jespa were constantly being swept into shore. Almost impossible to stay out among the waves. A very safe and shallow beach in normal weather, with no rips or under currents, it was even safer in a high wind.
And afterwards I had to take the car to the car wash as it was covered in sand, inside and outside. Mind you, by the time I arrived home the car was covered in dust, but that was probably better than sand and salt spray.
