Wet But Well

Gold Coast
I am happy to report that all is well here in Gold Coast - wet, but well. I've met some very nice people at work and am hoping I'll soon sort out all the names. I think I'm getting an idea of what my job will entail and am starting to form a game plan. I've been told a don't have a think American accent, which I've decided is a compliment. My only complaint would be the very stormy weather.

Normally I don't mind a bit of rain, and in fact I quite like the dramatic skies it brings, especially when I'm taking photos. But, since my commute involves a bus and 20 minutes of walking the torrential rain and winds that turn my umbrella inside out have me grumbling. Fingers crossed the weather changes soon or I'm going to break down and buy some rain boots.

Gorgeous place! I agree though! I don't mind a little bit of rain, but mostly love the skies.

Hi Jamie,
Maybe that is just the start of winter down under, hopefully rain boots don't need to be on your list. Great ocean photo!

Rain boots will help. LLBean.com sells awesome rain gear-Goretex rain coat (and even pants). Expensive (like $150), but you will be 100% dry. It's a blessing for me each time I have to be out or walking the dog.
I love that moody sky you've captured, and I see you're back to the beach. Goretex is good for walking the beach in crappy weather too and for hiding your camera safely if you get caught in a storm.
