Broad Beach

 We took the bikes as far as Broad Beach where we found some good shade under casuarinas. The bikes worked ok however the oncoming bike traffic on the narrow lane was scary. These were massive electric bikes indistinguishable from motor bikes and just as fast. A boy was killed last week in Tallebudgera having come off one of these. I am  typing this here on the 10th floor balcony. There have been at least four whale breachings and numerous tail slappings. On our way back we called into the Mermaid house. It just so happened that the grandies arrived there just as we were passing. We will move into this house tomorrow.
