Jos and I enjoyed a short holiday to Merimbula for 6 days, a beautiful seaside town on the south eastern coast of NSW. Here are a few shots:
A lovely Australian scene, somewhere between Merimbula and Bega:
Jos about to embark on his first Australian fishing trip from the lake in Merimbula:
and the first Australian fish he caught, a bream! (plus 3 more....)
some of the catch from the other fishermen:
A few pelicans following our boat, waiting for fish scraps after scaling and gutting :
We visited Central Tilba, a perfectly restored and maintained period village, protected by a National Heritage listing. The township is set against the magnificent backdrop of Gulaga / Mt. Dromedary:
An old red phone box, you don't see many of these anymore:
Near Central Tilba:
Native flora, on the coast near Narooma:
The clouds rolling in on Bermagui:
Jos looking surprised after I tried to push him down the cliff:

View from our balcony:
Near Ben Boyd lighthouse, on the way home:
And finally, a picture of our house - the bricklaying is almost completed. Only the cladding needs to go up on the second level:
Interior colours - tiles for the front entrance with pebbles; blanco city for kitchen benchtops with woodgrain cupboards and a red splashback. The olive is for a feature wall.
Carpet, ensuite and bathroom tiles with feature tile for ensuite shower, blanco maple for the bathroom benchtops and colonial skirtings.
And to end my post, I thought I should introduce a member of the family, Maddy's bear 'Ted', who I have forgotten to include. He is well travelled and has already been to England, Scotland, Austria, Germany, Italy, France, Switzerland, Thailand, New Zealand and a host of other towns throughout Australia:
