Visit to the beach

Early November, we managed to find a weekend in Melbourne where the weather was good.

This might raise gufffaws from the Perth crowd who believe that Melbourne never has good weather, and then quote various Crowded House songs. Melbourne has had approximately eight months of winter this year including the first 12 days of December, with the occasional warm sunny outbreak. I just checked BOM - this month's weather has sucked.

But I digress. Anyway we went down to Elwood Beach. Melbourne beaches aren't quite Perth beaches or for that matter Goan beaches. They're Melbourne beaches. A lot of strutting goes on. You can get a skinny latte at the beach in Melbourne.

We just sort of hung around on the sand, trying to coax N to explore the surrounds and relaxing. Great way to spend an afternoon.


Note - beach wasn't actually deserted, it just looks like everyone is indoors sipping lattes and talking about how good the coffee is here.
