We spent our labour day at Coolangatta and made a visit to Fingal Point which has a small lighthouse and some interesting rock formations. I took some photos of the lighthouse which I hope to run through some HDR before uploading. I also took a large panorama of some rain out to sea and the cloud formations above it.

As promised, I produced a batch of Dalek shaped gingerbreads for a certain occasional gathering of Doctor Who enthusiasts on the weekend.
I used the Donna Hay recipie which was a bit nicer than the one I found on the internet but I probably had the oven at the wrong temperature as they turned out softer than I would have liked. The dough was also runnier to start with which made cutting the shapes a challenge.
We also took advantage of the incredibly pleasant weather at this time of year and picnicked at the Mt Cootha gardens on the weekend where we found the birds to be unusually tame (but not unexpected given how many people are in the gardens all of the time)

I took these photos a little while ago but only just got around to uploading them off the camera.
