Beach Cottage Bush Walk & Waterfalls

Hey! 

So, here we all are again, Wednesday nearly already.  Not long til the weekend, I'm planning something to enjoy and distinguish it from the drudge of the week.

Last weekend, on Sunday, we had plans to go down the beach in the morning, have a coffee and just hang.  However it was a rare totally grey sky in Australia and rather than just fester inside all day Mr BC said he fancied going for a bush walk. 

We packed up some bacon and eggs and the picnic baskets and headed up to the lake & waterfall with plans to build a fire and cook some brunch.  Yep beach one way, lake the other.   Love Australia. 

Look, I know the brunch is nothing fancy, just grabbed a pack of bacon and half a dozen eggs and threw in a plastic sliced white loaf & HP Sauce.  But sometimes that's just what you need at the weekend isn't it?  I find it easier to just lose any ideas of fancy and follow a simple works for me procedure. 

And it worked so well.  What is it about boys (and big girls like me) and fire?  They got all boy-scoutish and built it, they cooked on it, I sat by it and then we all poked sticks in it…

I'm not pretending this was no work, it took a bit of effort to pack it in the back of the car (and simply had to throw in my new vintage $6 crochet blanket, mmm mmmm)…but in terms of reward versus hard labour.  No brainer.   

And the walking was good for my white bits.
