More beach time this week!

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 22 Nov

We drove down to another beach ten minutes away and managed to watch the sunset, play a bit and then sit on a bench on the beachside and eat pizza. It was a very relaxing way to end the day!

I'm starting to love figs! How about you?

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 19 Nov

We rarely but figs as they are not cheap. But we've found a couple of places that aren't too expensive and are trying them more often. I really like them. It's the combination of their unique texture when I bite into them and the...

A Christmas Wish at the beach

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 18 Nov

As Christmas approaches, most places here are turning Christmassy. The beach we visited last evening was no exception and had this large star decoration with a Christmas Wish. It's a great spot to take a photo! How Christmassy are...

Finally, a sunset at the beach

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 18 Nov

We had a friend over for dinner and decided to whizz through to the beach to watch the sunset. We just made it on time. Even though the beach is just 15 min away, it's been quite a while since we watched the sunset. Hope we see it...

Football by the beach

I was scrolling through my pics and saw this lovely pic my wife had taken a couple of months ago on a getaway quick trip when the kids enjoyed playing football on the beach. The sunset adds a magical touch to the scene! Have you...

I ordered a Lego for my son and it got cancelled as it went out of stock

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 13 Nov

My son finally decided he wanted a complex lego for his birthday and we chose what he'd like. I was excited as the price of the lego piece dropped further for the weekend and ordered it for a click and collect at the Myer store...

What do you listen to in the car?

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 3 Nov

I usually listen to the radio in the car, even on long drives, unless I can't access any good radio station. I usually listen to a station that has good clean music and some talk. I'm surprised at the amount of vulgarity and bad...

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 2 Nov

Fod trucks are not very common in the suburb I stay in but there is one that comes regularly to the park we sometimes go to. Last evening, I finally succumbed to the temptation when I saw it as we were in the park after ages. We...

What are these berries?

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 28 Oct

I have this weird plant that is growing in the narrow space between the shed and the wall. It's got large leaves. In the past month or so it has had these berries between the leaves. I'm wondering if they are poisonous. Any...

What's this on my lawn

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 26 Oct

With rains ceasing and the sun up, I've had some weird stuff grow on my grass lawn. This looks like grass, but is not looking good on the lawn as it grows taller. Is this going to choke the grass on the lawn and take over?

Do bats look eerie even in the daytime when it's bright?

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 25 Oct

We saw these bats in the wildlife park we visited last weekend. They do may it eerie, even in the bright daylight. Their rat like face, hanging upside down and their weird looking wings all add to the eerie feeling. Do you think...

Do you like having flowers in your workplace.

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 24 Oct

Generally the tea room at work is dead looking, but today we had someone who added a bunch of flowers to the table. It changed the whole vibe of the tearoom. The flowers were very interesting and indigenous. I hope that they last...

A 'different' breakfast

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 23 Oct

We'd run out of bread and this is what I tried for breakfast - just some cheese and pepperoni. It was yummy, but obviously didn't fill me enough and I had a bowl of cereal to get set for the day. What have you had for breakfast...

Another lonely car park

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 23 Oct

My previous pic showed an empty carpark at work when I left late close to midnight. Last evening I attended a meeting in the city at The Hilton and parked at the market car park next door. I took a pic when I parked so I wouldn't...

Have you seen a camels eyelashes? They are really long!

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 22 Oct

We saw a couple of camels on the weekend visit to the wildlife park and there were some facts written down - including the fact that they have long eye lashes and often have 2 to 3 layers of them. This is apparently to prevent the...

Signs about venomous snakes - would you still visit this place.

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 21 Oct

It's not uncommon to see signs like this in Australia, especially on parks and wildlife places and even some beaches. It scares me, but I visit these spaces. Thankfully, I've never stumbled onto a snake here is Australia. Have...

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 20 Oct

This is the first time I'm seeing a white albino kangaroo with a joey. We've seen several white kangaroos in Australia, but this time we saw one with a little baby joey in its pouch. They looked so cute together and we're not...

A peacock spreading its tail - finally saw one!

Pitstop @pitstop (13797) • Australia 20 Oct

I rarely see peacocks and the males are certainly very mesmerizing with their colorful bodies and their beautiful tail. The wildlife park we went to had a couple of peacocks roaming on the grounds, and just when we were leaving,...
