BIG DAY OUT

Yesterday was a pupil free day for Connor.http://www.flickr.com/photos/notanartist/
So, we left piles of washing up, unmade beds and unscrubbed bathroom floors to take an adventure into the big beyond, that is we donned our bicycle helmets and rode from home to Nobbies Beach. http://www.flickr.com/photos/steffe/
Along the way we spotted - a sea plane, lots of construction work, many people walking and an old boat dragged up from the bottom of the sea.
When we got to Nobbies we saw WHALES AND DOLPHINS

The whales were heading toward warmer waters and having fun spraying water out of there blow holes. The dolphins were surfing amongst the board riders swimming in and out and enjoying themselves (we could tell by the smiles on their faces!)
We met Grandpa who was to be our taxi home, but there were more adventures to come! We headed up to King Edward Park where we saw more whales and had a roll down the hill. Then we went to Bar beach and had fish and chips in cool cardboard cones.

We were exhausted by then, but managed a stop off at Darby's for some afternoon tea and then headed home to sit by the fire.

It was quite a day - unfortunately all without a camera! Thank you Flickr!
