The Big Kahunah


Devon took Fiona out for her first surf yesterday. It was a bit cold. Cowells was in the shade but the tide and the "waves" were just right. Fiona was initially a bit put off by the water, but she watched Devon ride a little wave in and said that she wanted to do it too. They went out and caught a wave in, Fiona was a bit nonplussed about being splashed in the face but seemed to enjoy it. She spent the rest of our time on the beach, working up the courage to touch sea anemonies left exposed by the low tide. We'll let you know how she does the next time.

Ah, she is turning into herself - I LOVE this age - this is just beautiful!! Annie will be amazed that she is not the baby she remembers, but we look forward to good times when she arrives here nonetheless!!

Love heaps and see Lou and Fi soonxx

PS Devon, bring her to the Gold Coast.... my bro is an avid surfer there and I am sure you guys could compare notes and teach these kids how to surf the tubes down-under xx
