We decided to take a break from Sydney and go on a short beach holiday. The roads were flooded and washed out north of Sydney so we went south instead. We had a chance to view some very nice scenery along the way including Sublime Point Lookout. Our first stop was in Kiama to look at the lighthouse and various sized blowholes. We couldn't resist having some fun drinking beer on the motel balcony. From Kiama we went further south to Jervis Bay and Hyams beach. Hyams Beach has the whitest sand in the world according to Guiness World Records, ha eat your heart out Hawaii. The sand was super bright, and made a squeky noise when we walked on it. It was a very beautiful beach with very few people on it. We also visited Cave Beach in the Jervis Bay National Park, which was a good surf beach with lots of enthusiasts. Moving further south we made it to Ulladulla where we set up our accommodations. We took a further drive south to Pebbly Beach to observe the wild animals on the beach. We saw kangaroos that are reputed to body surf there, but when we saw them they were more concerned with eating their dinner. Rich got up in the birds business while there as well. The birds were very tame, eating seeds out of peoples hands, making for some good photo opportunities. On the way back to Kiama we stopped at the Australian Navy Aircraft Museum to take in the Aussy planes and helis. Rich and Kt were a bit skeptical at first, but we all ended up having fun. The museum was well presented and interesting stories about the planes and people that flew them kept us interested the whole time. Finally in Kiama again we had a nice dinner followed by ice cream at the harbour.
