Three Days at Jane's, Robina, Queensland

 

  We are in  beautiful Queensland, Australia's second largest state, near the New South Wales' border. Margaret's sister Jane lives in the town of Robina, about 30 minutes northwest of Coolangatta.  The town seems fairly new and very walkable. Once we parked the car, we strolled  everywhere....cafes, groceries, the library, parks and many other shops. You can even walk to a new stadium built for the 2032 Olympic Games to be held in the Brisbane surrounds. Her condo has fantastic outdoor spaces perfect for gardens and relaxation and privacy.

   We spent three restful days here, catching up on news, sharing photos, shopping, and washing clothes. Jane is a great cook and prepared several yummy meals for us...favorites being salmon with spiralized zucchini and amazing toasted sandwiches.  Yum!

    A highlight was lunch at the Cudgen Surf Life Savers Club with nephew Sam's wife Sally, kids Layla and Jamie, and Sally's parents, John and Carmel. Beautiful views, great food and delightful company.

   Thank you so much, Janie. We had a lovely time with you. Our place next time.💗💗💗

PS....forgot to mention our sighting of flying foxes from our balcony in Coolangatta...very large bat-like creatures with up to a 5-foot wingspan. Crazy!
