Claudia (Briony & Bella's mother,
Dr C. Catterall, environmental scientist) kindly invited us to her holiday house on Stradbroke Island for the weekend, to catch up with our McAdam girls B & B; Claudia's sister (this being
Professor C. Catterall) and Carla's daughters (both also doctors, of the medical type though). John's good friend Geoff Nette (also a Dr, a marine biochemist who runs the
research station on North Stradbroke Island) and his lovely wife
Jo Kaspari were there too. And a lovely weekend it was too: along with the excellent company and really interesting conversations, there was plenty of good food and drink, and lots of sun, sea, surf and soft squeaky sand beneath the feet.

The headlands are gorgeous! |

Lovely walks to be done on Stradbroke. |

This is a previous photo of a Straddie wallaby, which I took last year . But we did see plenty this time round too. |

Home Beach: a nice easy beach for children who can play safely in this tidal gully. Mind you we did some very good body surfing here too, out where the breakers are. |
