Hornby Lighthouse

holidays are here, again.

i feel like we were just on our winter break.

time sure is flying by.

but SPRING IS HERE !

the weather has been a-maz-ing.

we don't have too much big stuff planned these holidays.

due to my fine (boo) and our washing machine dying,

we have a REALLY limited holiday budget.

which is perfect because i'm feeling super lazy these holidays

 and don't want too do much driving.

monday we went to the park,

i'm going to come back to tuesday,

wednesday we painted, played basketball and played card games all day,

today we went for a bike ride locally and now the boys are playing the play station.

so tuesday was our big adventure day.

i looked at my bucket list too see what we could knock off.

we did a little walk to Hornby Lighthouse over in Watson's Bay.

this is a cool little walk

 (15 mins - longer if your like us and stop forever at every little thing)

there is a canon, the lighthouse cottage and the gunpoints all along the way too explore.

the views were spectacular.

we seriously live in an amazing county.

probably the funniest thing about this walk was we walked straight past a nudist beach

(i had NO IDEA IT WAS THERE!)

we came to a sign that said you can only be nude on the beach and at that point i was like crap.

we had to walk right above this beach to get to the lighthouse.

makai was complaining that i wouldn't let him go swim there because the water looked so nice,

and he was right the water was aqua and crystal clear

but still that wasn't going to happen kid.

so he's complaining about that and i'm telling them quite loudly to LOOK AT THE TREES.

how many trees can you see?

wow did anyone see that lizard - there was no lizard.

i turned into one of those crazy mothers.

but don't worry i was prepared for the way back.

i enticed their inner competitive side.

"hey boys who thinks they can get to the other side of this beach in 30 seconds"

ha ha.

mum 1 nudist beach 0.

this was actually a really awesome place to explore.

we spent a good hour doing this walk because of all the tunnels the boys found near the gun points.

after our little walk the boys had a swim at camp cove,

they LOVED watching the scuba divers coming up out of the water.
