We had a great holiday over Christmas and New Year’s down at Nowra on the south coast of NSW about 2.5 hours out of Sydney. We were lucky enough to visit Hyams beach which is not far from the busy sea side town of Huskisson. Hymes beach has to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Australia. It has white sand like you have never seen before and for good reason they have the whitest sand in the world!
We also visited Currarong light house and surrounding areas which we got to via an excellent dirt road which was fantastic adventure for the kids. But just be careful not to get to carried away as the area is located on Australian ARMY land and there is also lots of endangered wild life living in the area.
Nowra has a lot of beautiful farm land but just be careful when going up to fences to pat animals as some are electrified and don’t have warnings. Unfortunately I found out this the hard way when I tried to get the attention of two beautiful Clydesdales….. Ouch.
I love the south coast of NSW as it has everything! Beautiful beaches and farmland together side by side and it isn’t always sunny. I know that may sound weird to some people especially from overseas but I think there is nothing more beautiful than watching thunder heads role in over the sea. When we arrived at the beach house we ran down to the beach and sat on the warm sand snuggled up close under the umbrella. It was a beautiful moment and one that won’t be forgotten soon.
Now I am back from holidays and feeling all inspired I will be starting on some more teapot sets. I have come up with a few more designs so come back soon to check them out!
