Gone Fishing...again...

Fishing has been a really popular option lately & this time the crew headed to the Woody Point Pier. Another gorgeous day in north BrisVegas!

Today we had this pretty assistant surveying the area for the best place to cast the lines (apologies if I'm not using the correct fishing terms here)

James baiting up & asking why the bait supply was running out so fast

Well, there's your answer James as to the dwindling bait supply. Mick has been feeding our smelly stash of prawn bits to our lovely assistant!

Everyone had a great time but unfortunately those sneaky fish just weren't biting today. Next fishing post will be a different story. We hope!

Gone Fishing...

The gang went fishing last week on the Bribie Island jetty. Sadly nobody caught anything but it was a beautiful day and everybody enjoyed themselves regardless. Oh, actually Tim caught a piece of seaweed so somebody DID catch something at least. And it was an impressive piece of seaweed! Onya Tim! The fish & chips lunch by the beach was rather tasty.

Happy Bastille Day!

How do aussies celebrate Bastille Day? Well I'm not sure how the rest of Australia celebrates, but we at Crossroads celebrated in style with a feast of fine french food, a little french music, some stripey shirts & an afternoon of water bomb fights! Water bombs may not be traditionally french, however, the spontaneity and frivolous fun of it all is very much what the french folk are all about I believe. A lovely day was had by all. Viva La France!

A Musical Interlude...

A song by Sigur Ros featuring the Perlan Theatre Group. Beautiful.

A City Adventure!

Ahoy! This is Beth from Crossroads! I thought I'd also help blog the daily adventures that our group members get up to!

Today James, Brett and I went to the beautiful Roma Street Parklands! The boys loved it and also shared their ideas and thoughts about gardening! This was then followed up by a delightful meal at Pancake Manor! Then we went to a quaint little cafe just outside the Regent called Aromas!

Hope you enjoy looking at the photos as much as we enjoyed taking them :)

Cool Beans... June Edition

Enjoying some beverages at Coffee Hit while ABC news interviewed staff member Lynda. The interview appeared on TV that night. As this took place a few weeks ago I can no longer recall what the interview was about...

Biff Bang Pow!

Here's the gang all ready to go into battle. Or commence their mission. Or to basically shoot each other senseless. Whatever the correct terminology is they had a whole lot of fun! They sure look like they mean business!
