Hello girls! How you going?
Remember that extremely tough ocean walk I did in February?…well this reminds me of that…
Probably gonna stick at wordless for this post
simply,
Australia,
is the best!
(and no I do not normally go around photographing men's bottoms and no, even after 4 yrs I still can't get over seeing men in Budgies!, especially Mr BC!!!)…hope I don't get arrested for this
see you next week
enjoy the weekend

go here to find out how grateful I am to live by the beach, here to see my Honeymoon Baby in the surf and here to read about our traditions of going down the beach…in England…where it was a tad bit colder than here











Looks like lots of fun, what beautiful scenery.
You’re a classic! And how great it must be living by the sea.
HA! Budgies? Oh, I cannot stop laughing. Too funny.
Its award night at my blog, do pop over for a visit!

Hi sarah…awesome video…
YEP..this is definately the BEST country goin!! (bit biased being a 5th gen aussie!!)..
gotta love the “bums”!!!

xx andrea
the water looks inviting! thanks for sharing life at the beach aussie style. ruby
Thank you for sharing. I love catching glimpses of your life there in Australia. Both my boys swim and sometimes wear speedos…never heard of “budgies”, love it.
If a budgie is a speedo…I agree. In Cali if someone is wearing one, he is really old, or really “not from here”! Those Aussie’s do take their ocean seriously, don’t they! What fun to watch!
m ^..^
Quite the athletic bunch. I’m curious… what, please, is the origination of the term *budgie*?
Thoroughly enjoyed this – your stills are great, the video awesome………..that water sure looks freezing, hope they have big thick towels to wrap round those goosebumpy bums!!!
Happy weekend in the sun.
Ooh, too bad I couldn’t look at the video. I’m in Germany and it said I couldn’t watch due to copyright laws…whatever. Very nice pics though…gotta love the thighs! Wish we had some of that warmth! Guess I’ll have to make a trip down under one day!
Cheers,
Siggie
Love the photos and video, Sarah, and nothing like watching our great lifesavers go through their paces. You’ll have to do it again on a sunny summer day to show us all. Yes, we’re SO lucky living here by the ocean. For those not in the know the term is ‘budgie smugglers’ and I’ll let you work that one out!
Love it!!! I couldn’t see your son’s surfing clip…it wouldn’t let me click on it.
At first I thought all that pink flesh was sunburn, but now I see how well-wrapped all the spectators are, I guess it might be the cold! They are wonderfully unselfconscious in their skimpy kit…
‘Budgie smugglers’ indeed…
And thank you Sarah for sharing Aussie men’s bums with us even though we know it’s not what you want to share

Wow, a lot of brawn and muscle there! That water is so sparkly and pretty and welcoming. You are so lucky to be able to walk near that idyllic a place, Sarah.

Love it when you post pics of old boy buns!Thanks, An old gal
made my day – wow did I laugh!~loved all the men in speedos, loved how one hiked his up. I live in Canada and we are heading into the winter months, so you can imagine how lovely it is to see warmth! Please shoot another movie on the beach in February ~ it seems to be the coldest month of all.
Love the blog -
not sure where it comes from but yeah I forgot in England we call them ‘Speedos’
put it this way somewhere in there is a budgie!!!!
Oh those are great…especially the men’s bottoms…ha!! Have a great weekend.
You know Speedos started in Australia don’t you?
Hello from Middle Georgia. Loved the video, but you didn’t give credit for the music. Would like to know who…
no sooner did i mention how i would like to see you do your home video did i find beach cottage TV. awesome!!
i need to settle in here for a good long read/watch. darn it, it’s 1AM EST in the states.
Wow!
Looks like a serious race!
