Ahh so yesterday's blog begins today ;)
The weather was magic and we wake in Cabarita minutes from doggy madness as shadow goes loopy for balls, hers or whom eva's! Dog exhausted, me mentally so we head to town for some breaky. I got talking with a local who in turn invited me to join his table which quick became a table of 5 locals and me! Really laid back conversation flowed. The kind where time just flows on and your completely unaffected. Shadow busy getting her puppy dreamz on! Finally moving on to kingscliff where we walk it from end to end before swimming at the boat ramp. I decide it is time!! To get shadow on a surf board that is. So I begin slowly coaxing her out with a ball, swim to the ball then up on to the board. Only 4 goes in and it works! She is terrified!! But she is on! I drag her around a lil way to get her used to it. Edging closet to the possibility of SUP ing soon!! :)
Enough of that I am drawn to drive around the next bend where we find a quirky lil cafe/art gallery/ bar thing. I have a coffee while shadow Zzz's (again) then I receive a txt from mum saying I need to visit the RTA so onwards to tweed we roll. Hot! Just yucky & hot! Boring blah blah. Cue here, do this... Etc. from there I wasn't sure what to do next so I just drove with no where in mind and stumbled upon Danger point & rainbow beach. A strange sense as if remembering being here but no actual memories. Very cool to see the ruins that make for a very interesting head land. We walk all the way to coolangatta and back. Before letting the pooch off lead at a spot that clearly says dogs must be on lead, but that the locals assure me is fine. Some old guy strikes up conversation, I vague interest out of courtesy, till he touches my cheek and calls me beautiful then I'm outta there! >:-/
The other locals somewhat less crazy are good for a chat. Then back to cooly for some groceries and a burger claiming to be the best in aus! If not the world!?!
Ok I'm in! Take me to burger heaven!
Ok, it's juicy & delicious. Best in the world? I hope not. I like to believe there is more burgers to live for! That cannot be the end of the search?! I also meet so e guy and his Winnebago who recons he has free camped here for 15 yrs!? I am skeptical.
By this time it's 9pm. I'm absolutely wrecked! Totally unsure of how I've ended up in QLD when my plan was to chill in the tweed. I'm ready for Zzz's. Shadow has a crazy outburst of energy brought on by kids with skate boards spooking her as they passed in the dark. I Park the car near rainbow beach. Good view, pretty, quiet, toilet blocks.
Hop in. Shadow has a temperature burning up and fast asleep.
Hmm, could be heat stroke, or exhaustion or something she ate hmm. Monitor her through the night. She vomits no less than 8 times. Which in a van is not much fun let me tell u! Puppy projectile bile spews! Me trying to catch it in a towel. Needless to say I slept s***e!! Haha. But just so you know she is all good and back to her usual self today! Crazy energy full appetite BOOM ALL GO!! Where as me, I'm wrecked!
