Saturday 23rd Feb - A beautiful scenery shot - (with a coastal python wrapped around the trunk... maybe not).

Saturday 23rd Feb - All the 'TONKA' trucks which atre restoring the beach, are parked up high and dry.

Saturday 23rd Feb - The people gathered at the seawall to check out the waves. It was well worth the ride. The waves were impressive.

Saturday 23rd Feb - The seaway was treacherous with the incoming tide. Yet some 'person' on his surf ski was there. He didn't get past the middle of the seaway, because as he got buggered and stopped paddling, the tide took him backwards. It kept us (people on the seawall) entertained until he gave up.
There were also two Volunteer Rescue boats in the seaway telling you not to go out, but a few jetskis didn't take any notice. I assume that they were ok.

Saturday 23rd Feb - See the two boats.

Saturday 23rd Feb - Narrowneck - No kite Surfers.

The weather isn't back to normal, yet but give it a couple more days and it will be sunny again.

The beaches are being smoothed out again.

Major Tom Tate said by the weekend, the beaches will be back to normal.

Notice how Surfers' beach was first to bought back to normality.

Here's Bob in action.

He was clearing the stairs.
