We're heading down to Christies this arvo.
Hot chips in rotary park then sandcastles on the beach.
Evelyn's getting more confident in the water but Fletch is fixating on sharks, now he's not worried about drowning.
Snorkeling on the reef might have to wait until next Summer.

I'm going to be headed to Christie's this weekend with some friends. One of my friends is super terrified of sharks too. I heard that the waves are really nice there so we'll probably be body boarding.

There are heaps of nice options down here.
Tell your friend I've never heard of a shark around Christies, in the 40 years I've been a local.
This was yesterday.

I can kind of understand the shark fixation. A few years ago the Surf Lifesaver helicopter set the alarms off when we were having our picnic at the beach. People weren't getting out the water, so the on land guys were having to tell them to get out. The helicopter was hovering not far off shore and the shadow of the shark in the water was bigger than the copter! 😨🦈 Once everyone actually realised how real it was, they stayed out of the water, even after it had gone. Except maybe a few brave ones in no further than their ankles. With fish stocks getting low, we're getting more attacks on swimmers.
Interestingly, the day the girls went jetty jumping a small airplane was circling and the sirens came on. No-one budged though and they went off and left shortly after. False alarm maybe. Big seal?
