Sharknado alert!

Margaret and the boys rented boards and went surfing this morning.  My role was to watch from shore and tell them what they were doing wrong and to eat our bag of potato chips. They all really appreciated my input.  I did not get any photos, but Walter caught a nice wave which I wish I would have captured.

At one point while they were surfing I caught a glimpse of a dorsal fin, which threw me into a mild panic until I saw a pod of dolphins rolling in the surf.

We came back to our cabin in Kiama and the manager showed us the local news flash that three great white sharks were spotted this morning about a half mile from here at Surf Beach.  We had walked by that beach last night and it was a candidate location for today's surfing although we opted for Seven Mile Beach which is a few miles to the south.  Nobody seemed much troubled by it.

Then while we were eating lunch, we saw this water funnel a few miles to the north.  The same manager said that they get a couple of these per year.  Again, nobody seemed much troubled by it.

It is time for a sequel.

Don't worry.  We won't head back into the water until we get the all clear.
