Sunshine Beach

These are mainly pics of my house at 26 Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach, Qld.  This was my second visit to this residence and it is COMFY!  Only trouble was the people at the rental office neglected to give me the remote control to that opened the garage door, so had to do it manually for a week.  Didn't find this out til I checked out.  But, 'twas still a week of luxury.  This is the main dining deck on the second level of the three level home, with the fine Ozzie barbie in the background.  I barbecued twice a day...for brekky and dinner.  It's pretty much required to gain respectablilty in Oz!  You just go to the Coles supermarket a mile away in Noosa Junction, stock up on chook, snags, and steaks, and enjoy.

The living room, with indoor dining table for use in the wet.  Love the aluminium poles on the staircase!

Lizards on the barbie.

This pic was in the same file, had to throw it in.  This is at Otago University in Dunedin, NZ...a sculpture over the science and math building, I reckon.

Feb/Mar is The Wet in Queensland, and it was indeed wet!  About ten inches of rain fell during my week at Seaview Terrace.  I still got out on the beach every day at some point.  This view is from the third (top) floor of the house...a good place to watch the storms come in from the Coral Sea.

Sunshine Beach.  It goes for miles and miles, down to Coolum Beach in the far distance.  My house was only about 500 metres from the northern end of the beach, and Noosa National Park.

Another view from the top deck of the house.

While the top deck is wide open with a fine view of the sea, the lower deck is in the jungle, complete with kookaburras and many other birds.  It's also the pool deck.  On a warm, rainy day...temps in the 70s...it was nice to set up a chaise next to the pool, under cover, and watch the rain from there.
