Happy new year lovelies! This is where we spend a big chunk of New Years Eve {day} - having an adventure in the Bogey Hole. This fabulous ocean pool was carved out of rocks by convicts many, many, many years ago and is Newcastle's most wonderful swimming spot. Waves were crashing over the edge - but we decided to brave it and oh, how glad we were.
Afterwards, we went here.
To Nobby's. For lunch.
I know, hideously ugly isn't it?
Then we made our way to the foreshore for a lovely relaxing picnic, followed by fireworks before coming home to champagne and more fireworks on the telly.
This is the life.
Now, onto my 52 new things - both these shots were taken with my new baby - my Nikon digital SLR - I am in love. Secondly, here's my
French Word of the Day: Aventure - adventure. Shouldn't we treat our lives as an adventure? Let's!
Happy 2014 everyone x
What fabulous photos! Sounds like you had a great day and evening. I have not been to the Bogey Hole in years, and unsure I have ever swum in it? Must rectify that stat!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and here's to more aventure!
Oh Cathy, it was BRILLIANT! So invigorating. Hurrah for AVENTURE!
DeleteWhat a wonderful day you all had. That view from Nobby's is really something else. Beautiful scenery. How fortunate you are to have an SLR. Karen's hubby gave her one several years ago and her photography absolutely blossomed and she has taken some wonderful pics (especially when she was in Alaska recently). Looking forward to lots more from you this coming year.
ReplyDeleteI think your life is one big 'aventure'....often makes me wish I was younger. : )
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and yours. x
Thanks so much Mimsie, I really am looking forward to taking more photos this year - a good SLR makes such a difference. Alaskan shots must have been incredible! Happy new year to you and your family too xx
