It's Monday lets move

Having had a great time on the weekend with the family, it's time to move on to go south to see some more of the coast beyond Sydney. We rented a car and started driving; it seemed that we never got out of Sydney. We thought we had driven hundreds of miles and had only covered about 60km.
The first sight of the coast south of Sydney



















This is what's ahead
























We got to Kiama. It had been raining all day, so we were ready to call it and settle into a place for the night. We found a nice and not too expensive motel and decided to get a movie (The Tourist) and relax.
On Tuesday, we explored Kiama, a very nice little beach town with lots of cafes and great little shops. Kiama is known for it's Blow Hole, and we went there to take several photographs.
This is what the hole looks like.



















and how it comes about



















This is what it looks like in action.
























We also found a great saltwater ocean pool, and Patricia was just about to go in.

Come on, don't be shy:>)



















Walking & almost swimming a lot made us hungry, so we went to the market and got some bits and then to have a picnic in the park.
No tools to eat with, so its back to fingers.

But what a view for lunch
Any time



















This evening, we got another 2 videos (Red and Sherlock Holmes) and decided to take it easy. The next day, we headed back to Narrabeen to relax for a few days.

  1. Michael, these are great pictures. I love Kiama too. I have a friend who has a nice holiday townhouse there . . . so maybe next time you come we can all go there?

    Have a great Christmas Day with the Hannam Vale crew!

  2. A friend and I used to set lobster traps [on the sea side of course] of the blow hole. In anything above flat seas it could be very hairy getting in and out between the wave sets to pick up the pot lines in a 14 ft boat.
