Happy New Year

I know it's a bit late however Happy New Year to all my family and friends.
New Year's eve saw Brian and I off down to King's Beach, one of the best local beaches near us,  infact not even 10mins from home.
It was a truely wonderful evening and we knew there was going to be a fireworks display around 9.15pm so we thought we would head to the beach and have a look see.
We parked out of the main area of Caloundra and walked with the many other hundreds of people armed with torches for a stroll around the boardwalk prom to King's Beach, we found a spot on the bank and sat and waited for the fireworks to start.
Around 9.20pm they started a fantastic show which went on for around 15mins, there was a pretty strong wind blowing so they unfortunately did not get to the height that they possibly were meant to.
After watching these we made the slow stroll amongst the many folks back to the car and drove home where we had a couple of wines and sat and watched the New Year's eve lineup on TV for the rest of the night which included the amazing fireworks live from Sydney Harbour Bridge oh wow just amazing, we saw the New Year in and then headed off for the night and the beginning of 2011.
