australia day at cumberland river

This is just gonna be a short post. Me, Ozzy and dtra went to Cumberland River for the Australia Day long weekend. We took a few photos, went swimming and body boarding and pretty much just relaxed for a couple of days.

Didn't do much on the first day, we went for a short walk up the river and had a barbecue dinner. After it got dark we walked out to the beach and took some experimental shots of the great ocean road. Also down in the water there were some mystery glowing things washing up and then disappearing. No idea what they were. :S



The next day I woke up early (about 7am) so I got up and went for a little walk, then later that morning we saw a little grasshopper... dtra, with his macro lens, got some really nice photos. I tried to reverse my 50mm with unusual results. ;D We went for a bit of a walk up to castle rock. It was quite a long walk but it was ok. We saw an Echidna, and I almost stepped on a snake. The only but I didn't enjoy were the downhill parts. :(



After that I put my camera away for the rest of the weekend. We went body boarding a few times and went to the Lorne Pub for dinner and to watch the Australian Open final. We got some ice cream's but my cone was structurally unsound and ended up in the dirt. :~(
