Stradbroke Weather: Squalls from Lisa Yallamas on Vimeo.
Two whales frolicked in Brisbane's Moreton Bay off Brisbane but the beaches were closed. Squally weather marred the first October weekend on Stradbroke Island.
As we waited in the car in a queue for the Big Red Cat - a ferry - the kids were concerned about driving a car onto a boat.
"Can we move around?" "Do we keep our seat belts on?" "Are you sure we can drive on to a boat?"
The Big Red Cat has a little cafe that does a roaring trade and has an enclosed observation deck as a major drawcard - why else would you pay $20 for hot chocolate and tea for five people? The view.
The cafe was calling completed order numbers out before the last car drove on to the Big Red Cat! I felt sorry for the old Stradbroke Island Ferry - we dubbed it the Blue Dog.
The Blue Dog chases the Big Red Cat over Moreton Bay ;)
Whales too far off for a Flip camera - which is now dead. Interesting phenomenon with Flips you erase the video and it tells you it's still a full disc.
