Rain after sunshine

I wanted to enjoy the last day of good weather on the beach and spontaneously opened an event on couch surfing. Hanna and Mark joined. We went to Noosa heads which is about 2 hours from Brisbane. It doesn't only have incredible beaches to offer but also a beautiful coastal walk and so called "fairy pools".

The first beach was well populated but there are plenty more like the one the picture above where only a few people are.

We continued walking (luckily often under trees, it was super hot) to get to the fairy pools. We didn't really know what to expect, I had a vague info from a travel blog.

It's natural pools that get flooded by the waves and are somehow filled with sand. Needless to say that they heat up very fast and are even warmer then the ocean.

About the names, everything sounds super beautiful except one place. We couldn't believe it When we passed it with the car. The area (or town) is called "murdering creek".

We had just 30 minutes before sundown and wanted to see how the beach looks like over there at sunshine coast. This jumping picture turned out very well so Mark and Amanda got more ballsy and wanted to do this high-five while jumping.

For the next day we wanted to have a BBQ and went to that public barbecue places of the city, equipped with some steak, sausages, music, beer and pineapple.

Super happy about the snapper we threw it on there and added some pineapple. It was superb 👌

Next day I had to take some fotos for job applications back in Germany for when I return. I bought a 130$ shirt just to take a picture with it and return it the next day. Worked like a charm.

Once that was done, I decided to celebrate my future career with tequila. 

It really is raining a lot here. It's either super rainy or very sunny and very humid (people here would say it's "muggy").

We, that is Amanda, Tenille and me, went to Tenilles place. A lovely apartment in the 18th floor. The view from the balcony is really nice.

The next day was really bad. I literally netflixed until 19:00, made dinner (a really nice recipe for noodles with a paprika sauce), kept on netflixing and slept again. 10/10 hangover day.

Today, I decided to make a motivational breakfast. Oatmeal cooked in a berry mix with Greek yogurt and ice cream. Don't judge me, with these temperatures I can always eat ice cream 😎

Right now I'll try to get the images from Amanda's GoPro. She took some shots from our beach adventure and I really want to have them. This night I might drive to Sunshine Coast again, couchsurf there for a night and return for Olufs but that needs yet to be organized.

Stay tuned and have a great day,
