Our Beach

Deserted beach as far as you can see

 Our friend Jeff is a world-class fisherman, we are not.  With the slightest flick of his wrist, Jeff sent the hook flying halfway to Australia!  Instantly there was a tug on the line.  He handed the pole to Steve and let him play with the fish.  He is standing on our little piece of the Costa Alegra (Gold Coast).  Not bad, eh?

Caught a large Jack Cravelle

 We let the fish go as he isn't very good to eat. In the meantime, we watched a Green Sea Turtle surf in on a wave, check us out, then disappear. Shortly after that we watched three Grey Whales breaching and playing in the surf. That's when we decided to buy the stretch of beach we were standing on.

The surf was really high

 The surf was really high and you wouldn't want to try to swim in it, but it was so beautiful to watch the waves crashing on the shore.
