Crikey! Cop a load of this little beauty!


If this message reads a little slow, it's because the salt build up on my skin has slowed down my typing speed. The surf conditions have been great and the sun continues to shine. We spent yesterday at the Australia Zoo and we were all well impressed with the whole set up. The grounds are immaculate, the enclosures were mind blowing and the animals appeared to be as stoked to be there as we were. The live shows were awesome and left us saying 'Crikey' all the way to the Buderim Ginger Factory. We left Coolum (probably named by some stoned hippy surfer....... it's cool.....um.......) this morn and headed north to the Town of 1770/Agnes Water. It's the birthplace of QLD as Captain Cook first landed here back in..............(will let you guess the year) and close to the Barrier Reef. It's also the last point of surf until WA. Will fill you in more after we check it out. Everyone is well, Anais is up on two wheels on her bike(Harry Holmes) and Amelie is trying to master the art of Houla Hooping. Emm has become addicted to scrabble and I have discovered that facial hair grows at a faster rate than head hair. How is this so?
The study of hair growth is a fascinating subject and quite complex. Why do the hairs on your arms stay short while the hairs on your head grow long? If you stay longer in the tropics your hair growth rates may change a little but it's mostly determined by your genes. For a simple answer to your question

Love to Emma, Amelie and Anais

And while we are on the topic of your post the name Coolum is probably from the aboriginal words "gulum" or maybe "guloom" or possibly "kulum" which mean "blunt" or "headless" and refer to the shape of Mount Coolum - or maybe you are right about the surfer!
