where the sun shines

Twice a year Colin has a check up with his skin cancer specialist. It just happens to be in Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast. No complaints from us, it is a great excuse to return to a place that we love and that holds such treasured memories. May is beautiful here, mid twenties and the water is still warm. Colin swims, we walk, sit in the sun and then swim and walk some more. We usually run into a familiar face or two.We follow the familiar boardwalk, visit our favourite cafes and see what changes have occurred since our last visit. It continues to amaze us how much the coastline changes; rocks get exposed, sand banks move, beaches change their shape. Caloundra is familiar, it still feels like home. Johanna disembarked from the plane into the warm air with a big smile on her face, "It feels like home, I love being here". We have hardly seen her since! Colin and I are taking it slow, sleeping and relaxing, catching our breath after a hectic month. Sun and sea, soothing for the soul...
