Manly Beach / Shelly Beach (part 4)

SUCH A FUN and GORGEOUS DAY AT MANLY BEACH!  

And, Kenzie is in heaven with her second round of Aussie fish & chips w/vinegar!
second round of the trip; not the day
:-)

 ($75 worth of fish 'n chips, btw -- dang, stuff's expensive here!) 
Porter surfs in
(kinda looks like he's having fun, huh?)



uh, not really


And we are off to Shelly Beach!

Most Aussie beaches have these 'rock pools' -- the first one we encountered (at Bondi) had been drained for cleaning, which was a major disappointment to Porter.  
So he was very excited to explore this one during our walk to Shelly.

Lest you were wondering about the water temp --
It IS winter-time in August down under!
(Abbie DID eventually dive in & swim across - polar bear, that girl!)

Darling pewter sculptures along the path

Aussie Bubbler . . . Abbie's turn first!

Zach's up next!


Shell collecting on Shelly Beach
Such a contrast from nearby Manly's soft white fine sand; 
Shelly's 'sand' was coarse & full of tiny shells.

Just LOVE those two!
