Peaceful Views

Hello everyone, hope everyone had a great weekend. I am back home in Caloundra once more. Looking towards having a full on week of work from tomorrow onwards. It is very strange driving around the local area here at present, one is constantly reminded of Steve Irwin the whole time by signboards advertising Australia Zoo .They have always been there but I seem to notice them more now.

Australia Zoo is situated within the confines of Caloundra city which some people probably realise. Some of local buses are brightly painted and bear larger than life pictures of Steve in action. Everywhere there are reminders of Steve.There have been so many well deserved tribute posts I have read these past couple of weeks, everything that could be said in Steve's honour has already been said.

Here in Caloundra the loss of an international icon, a remarkable wild life hero, becomes the young fella the local son who made good big time, with his hard work and dedication, his bloke next door attitude. He put Australia on the map world wide by being the "Aussie Bloke" that he was,. Hs dedication to conservation, his country, his local community was uneqauled he really was "True Blue."




Tranquility


These Views were taken from Montville towards the coast. They show the beauty of the surrounding locality
of the coastal hinterland. One could admire these views forever and a day.
I cannot take the credit for the actual photos. They were taken by either Peter or Rex.
Well taken were they not. Until next time Take care everyone. Margaret.

Caloundra Photos At Last

This is a view of Caloundra, looking across to Golden Beach. I travel this way,
going to and from work. Pelican Waters is the lower point.

Caloundra

This is the main street of Caloundra which is called Bulcock Street.
Bingera Tce where I live is one block behind.

This photo was taken on a very quiet day it would seem. Usually there is
a great deal of traffic passing through. There are plenty of dreaded parking
meters, these do not effect me as I always walk through the arcade.


Part of the walk along King's beach, the boardwalk that I mentioned in my
original post begins further along. As you can see it is a beautiful place to live.
The last picture looks across to Golden Beach which I pass through on my way
to Pelican Waters where I work. The drive to and from work is most pleasant.

Caloundra

This is one of the streets that I walk down to the beachfront from.
There is an arcade connecting the street I live on across the main street,
Bulcock Street, then on down to the waterfront.
I can also access the beachfront by using any number of streets like this one.
My favourite street to walk down is one that takes me past the picture theatre,
the reason being it is on a hill and the view is rather spectacular.
