Friday 29th August.
One of our favourite walks is here at Burleigh Heads. There are a series of walking tracks between Tallebudgera Creek and the beach at Burleigh, then into the shopping centre. The lower track which follows the cliff line through the National Park overlooks the pounding surf below. This is the pick of these walks however on this ocassion this track was closed due to a serious rock fall caused by the recent very heavy rain.
The alternative walk via the top track involves a lot more initial uphill, then a series of stairs at the end of the walk down to the beach at Burleigh. Gail did exceptionally well as this would have been the toughest walk she has done since injuring her back 8 months back.
Today is a public holiday on the Gold Coast as their annual show is on, but most of the touristy shops in Burleigh were open along with all the eateries.
We had brunch at "The Pantry" cafe where the food is always terrific. I had eggs Benedict and Gail had Swiss Waffles with maple syrup and ice cream. The walk back via the same route was taken a little more easily as we both felt weighted down with the food.
Did a bit of washing during the afternoon then went to the Tweed Heads "Twin Towns" club for dinner.
