23rd October 2011 Sunday

Another hot day and everyone started to arrive back again at the beach for the day, Sharon invited us out to Cronulla to watch Jenna at her nippers day.. so it was an early start for us... to get to Cronulla for 8.30am... we had a nice drive through Helensburgh and Sutherland towards Cronulla.

Arriving at the beach to what is an every weekend occasion hundreds of little nippers everyone all with different coloured hots on going through there weekly training to because our future lifeguards, all this was on Cronulla beach and in the distance the same thing was happening on North Cronulla beach..

We watched on while they went through their races etc..

While we were busy with Jenna John went off taking photos of  a challenge for the Guinness book of records, the most people to slide down a water slide in an hour !!! It was a very soap occasion... so slippy the guys and gals were doing head flips right over the top !!!

Once they nippers had finished with the racing .. they headed for the pool to do some practice on porpoise jumping skills.. to simulate going over the waves..

While they were keeping cool in the water, we tried to find a way to cool down... it reached 35 degrees today...

 The kids finished off the day with tag racing ..(poor things in all that heat )

After we headed for a shady spot and had fish and chips for lunch yum !!

After lunch we headed home..decided to drive through the National Park on the way back it was a lovely drive...stopped off for a coffee...

It was a long day but a very enjoyable one... re returned to Coledale and everyone was leaving and we finally got our beach back all to ourselves...

I wonder if the same happens every weekend ??? We will find out next weekend as we have 2 more weeks here .. wooohooo
