At the beach

This weekend we had a birthday and got to catch up with lots of family. It meant a trip to Yamba which is always gorgeous. 

Today we had a picnic at River Street park off Yamba Bay - the cloud formations were beautiful and everyone had fun playing totem tennis, French cricket and soccer. 


Grevillea "Honey Gem" and bees in the park
Pelicans and Ibis
reminds me of the movie Stormboy
