Boambee Headland looking north, Sawtell, New South Wales, Australia.

The headland is definitely not a tourist thirst trap. If you're not a local, you'd easily miss it.

There was a storm rolling in over the sea from the south, behind us.

If you're in Palm Beach on the Gold Coast, and looking for an affordable lunch, dinner, or take-away option, then this small Chinese restaurant, located on a side street, hits the spot.

With just 5 tables; a large family group, a couple of obvious locals, and two walk-ins, made it full house.

Yesterday Australians had the chance to say Yes to our first nation's peoples.

Yes! We see you
Yes! We recognise you
Yes! We hear you.

Such a small thing.

Yes. And we said NO.

"Advance Australia fair"? Advance Australia where?

Clouds.

“The more often we see the things around us - even the beautiful and wonderful things - the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds - even those we love.” ~ Joseph B. Wirthlin.

Thought for the day.

If the LNP had backed a Yes vote like they did back in the 1967 referendum, would you still be voting no this Saturday?

The Bats-wing Coral tree is naked, no leaves.

But still attracting Rainbow Lorikeets,
with come hither blossoms dangling,
enticing the courtship of noisy nectar seeking suitors.
