The weather has been really tropical and stormy over the last couple of weeks, with much of Queensland in flood, a lot of losses with farm stock and some houses and properties, but the positive side is the dams are full, and a large majority of the agricultural people are delighted they have come out of years of drought!!!, I must say I would hate to have to clean up the muddy smelly mess left after a flood invades your house, but these people just cope and carry on - a very "
hardy" lot.
Kids still manage to have fun, even fishing in their town park.


Floods didn's stop this chap above carrying his carton of 4X (Queensland's own beer), just as well he didn't have to wade along the road/river below - 10 metres above.

And last weekend at Kurrawa beach, Broadbeach, the Queensland Surf Lifesaving Championships were held -
and it was very wild and woolly - many accidents and broken equipment, but they just kept on challenging each other and competing!!!!.

Above, the girls take off in the sea ski run.

Very choppy surf above

And didn't some of the Lifeboats - and their teams -
come a cropper!!!
