wave watchers.

We are spending two days at the beach. For most of today Dale and I have been driving between Queenscliff and Barwon Heads pulling in at spots to watch the ocean from blustery headlands and to see if we can find a good spot for Dale to give me a surfing lesson. The last time we surfed together was 2005 at Port Fairy. It was so cold and wild and so energising. Just out past the waves we spotted a Mumma and calf whale floating by. I had my eyes peeled for whales today but they must be busy elsewhere. Queenscliff is so sleepy it's almost impossible to find a place open for dinner. I love seaside towns in the winter.
