After our exciting day at the zoo... We had a great family beach day! The weather is perfect! The entire Hoffmeister Family went surfing. We wore wetsuits at first, then it really warmed up and didn't even need our "wetties"! The water is so clear and beautiful! It was a nice relaxing day! If you look at our latest photo album, I posted some pictures of all the crazy chips they have here! The Aussies thought we were crazy taking photos of the chips at...

Yesterday we had another full day, actually we were so busy we slept late this am! We started our day checking surf spots. We ended up going to Kurrinbum Beach. It is a great spot that has rocks and a cove.

She was shocked! We were both soaked and we ran to get off the ...
