So, I did some more traveling. Finally! I went to the Sunshine Coast with the kids I nanny for and their mom over the kids’ April vacation. She had to work, the kids and I had no plans so we just hung around- beachside. It was fun. I didn’t do too much exploring down there because I didn’t have a car but I walked down to the Maroochydore Esplanade (they had starbucks and vegan fro-yo. Life made) and made it out to the Australian Zoo and Currimundi Beach.

Note: My camera had a terrible crash at Bundi beach back in December and it just hasn’t been the same since. Just a wee bit fuzzier then I like. I think I need a new lens 😦 😦 Also, some of these are off an old Samsung phone. Moral of the story- These pictures aren’t the best but I’m trying not to obsess over them. Trying be the key word.

Beach time and Maroochydore Esplanade walk:

I built a sandman! Think more Frozen “Do you want to build a snowman?!” and less Metallica

Vegan lunch one day at Raw Energy. I ordered the Mexican Roll Up with no sour cream. Yum!

and followed it up with some Soy Chocolate Fro-yo at Yogurt Land. I was SO happy about this.

Australian Zoo:

Currimundi had beaches…

We saw this randomly at a little airport. I don’t know anything about planes but I know that I sort of love this one!
