Family Hike to Boulder Beach

The weather continues to be amazing, even if the surf has finally dropped to nothing. My feet and back need the break anyway and I was able to rent a board for Catalina and take her out in the smaller waves this week. Here are some photos from a short hike we took from our house, over Lennox Headland, to the first beach to the south, Boulder Beach. It too is a great surf spot and is much less crowded than Lennox Head. I'll hike down there with my board when the next swell hits. That's likely to be not until next weekend. Tomorrow we're off to explore the hinterland and then on Thursday we'll check out Evan's Head or Tweed Heads. We've reserved a small rental car for the two days.

Sadly, Catalina fell while running in the rental house and we're waiting right now for her 11:45 am appointment at the Lennox Head Medical Center to be sure that she hasn't broken her arm or wrist. There's some minor swelling and she is unwilling to use her left arm and hand for much. I guess we'll get a very practical lesson in cross-cultural medicine. Since we'll have to pay upfront and then bill Blue Shield, I'm very curious what the cost will be for our visit. Anyway, don't worry about Catalina too much. It's probably just a sprain and her spirits are good.
