Last weekend we went away to Jervis Bay, a little town 3 hours south of Sydney. Our good friends Martine and Juergen drove up from ACT and met us in Jervis Bay where we rented a house together. The weather on our drive down on Friday afternoon was absolutely miserable and we had low expectations for the weekend. Thankfully, by the time we got to Jervis it had cleared up and we ended up having really nice weather for the weekend. We also got to meet Martine and Juergen's little girl, Nadia, who is 2 weeks younger than Ava. It was a very relaxing, chilled weekend doing mostly nothing and lots of eating. On Saturday we hopped onto the ferry and went across the bay to Huskisson for lunch, walked around a bit and then caught the ferry back. Jervis Bay itself is nothing great but there is a stunning strip of beach behind the house we rented. We spent Sunday morning walking along the beach, burying treasures and taking photos on the beach before the long drive home. This was Ava's first time to the beach so we decided to put her on the sand and her toes in the water. She didn't fuss or cry but she didn't smile or laugh, she merely looked at us as if to ask what's the deal?
On our way home, we stopped in Gerrningong for lunch. We found a nice little deli/ cafe for lunch and then let Justin play on the playground before resuming the drive. It took longer than usual to get home because we had to stop twice because Ava was so unsettled and just as we hit home stretch, the traffic was horrible.
But as always, it was nice to get out of Sydney for the weekend and chillax with friends.
