Yamba

Found the nice sleepy village of Yamba pleasant and easy to enjoy. Tranquil sandy beaches, surf for those requiring a greater thrill and lots of boating activities made it easy to find some water activity that suits. Dogs abound on all beaches, even those with NO DOGS clearly marked on the signs. Dogs are welcomed and patted by all staff at all cafes. Something that took some getting used to after so long in Queensland.

We enjoyed the day by the beach. Steve took a kayak out, having withdrawals after so long between paddles. He took the dog out for a short paddle which she thoroughly enjoyed. We also tried out her new cushion which we got from a bring out your dead back in Noosa. It worked a treat. Steve then dropped her back and went for a longer paddle out to the ocean, over to the other side of the bay and back up the river.

The dog and I enjoyed a walk back into town for coffee (me) and food collection (her). She scored a beauty and thoroughly enjoyed the outing. Found a great pie shop opening tomorrow so must go back for the opening…

Lazed the day away and read and relaxed. I could get used to this…
