Mothers' Day today was spent with our family on a beach at Redcliffe. You know, the older I get, the more I realise that there are some darn beautiful places around Brisbane and Redcliffe is one of them. It is such a wonderful spot for families to gather, relax and enjoy the scenery. Today, under an azure blue sky, we spent time eating (fish and chips take-away so that the mums of our family didn't have to do any work) and watching and playing.The younger kids loved playing on the small, shell-filled beach (that wave to the left is a jet ski thing by the way!):
We had fantastic views across the bay to the Port of Brisbane, Sandgate and even the city proper:
A few pelicans floated by looking for a fish feed:
And the spot was a gathering place for the local kite-flying association who filled the sky with amazing colour and fun:
Some of us loved this one:
And I thought that this one looked fantastic:
Even my brother got out his own kite to have a go. He didn't do too badly either:
Happy Mothers Day to all mums reading this. I hope that your day was as restful as ours!
