Caloundra long weekend
Just had a four day break at Maleny and Caloundra with our friends the Wards. Saw Neil Murray (My Island Home/Warumpi Band) at Finbars in Maleny. Great venue - intimate friendly great pizzas. Mooched around maleny and district on Friday.
Spent Sat Sun Mon at the beach, with a short half day foray to Mapleton and the pub where Andrea spent an excruciating few adolescent years in the 60s.
The Wards are from the deep south so this was new territory for Ian in particular.
The water was great. Love winter water. So calm and clear - and everyone assumes its cold so I have the ocean to myself. Bliss.
