Hey guys,

Got home last night from one of the best weekend trips ive had in a while. Went up to the sunshine coast and stayed at coolum beach at my girl friends olds unit. Her parents and her sister and her husband were there also.

On saturday we all went onto the beach at noosa north shore for a fish, I got 2 dart and a bream which I was happy about as I am used to just feeding the fish and not catching a thing. I think we caught 8 fish all up and everyone caught one, so that was good (sorry no pics of the fish).

Yesterday my girlfriend and I went onto the beach again up to double island point (the others chose to go shopping instead - LAME). It was amazing. We got to see dolphins jumping in and out of the waves about half way up to double island from noosa, my girl was pretty happy, and then once we were at double island we say another pod of dolphins about 500m offshore and a whole heap of large turtles, its was just amazing.

Well here are some photos (my girlfriend just got a new camera and she loves the panoramic shots :))

Yeah it could be a good way to get the missus more into 4wding. If she gets to take good pictures she will be more happy to come along. Let us know when your thinking and we will try and be free.

Wow you started right, but ended wrong! Wat's with that guernsey?

BTW your letters of your number plate stood for Ready For Hire in my last job. LOL!

Tim, so many people are commenting on the guernsey, it is a very good one but the focus should be on the scenery and more importantly the patrol me thinks.

I like to think I am ready for hire, I do need to make some fast cash ;) I'm pretty spewing i lost my last number plates to a steep bank somewhere at ripley. It was 862 EER or if you put a B in front BEER... mmmm beer
