Early-summer thunderstorms, Caloundra.

We have experienced a few dramatic early-summer thunderstorms at our new home over the last few weeks. These scenes are from Kings Beach and Happy Valley, at Caloundra – on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. Some show storms building, others in mid-action, and others of the retreat.

Kangaroo parking sign…

On a recent trip I was quite relieved when I finally sighted this sign – I was beginning to wonder where I was going to rest/leave my trusty kangaroo-steed, having been travelling for several hours 😉
Perhaps my recollections are failing me, but I thought these were much more abundant when I was in school – perhaps everyone is using roo-ber?
