Scavenger Hunt - Easter @ Rainbow Beach

 I've been absent from Scavenger Hunt Sundays for a few weeks. We spent Easter and a couple of weeks at Rainbow Beach, enjoying the beach and relaxed pace. Since we came back life has been hectic with school and traveling interstate for a family member's wedding. Looking back over these photos reminds me of our wonderful vacation and Easter holiday.

3. Ancient or Antique
Ancient Australian History: Aboriginals believed that the world was made by the Ancestors, back in the Dreamtime. The Ancestors made everything – the rocks, mountains, plants and animals. The Ancestors left certain sights to show which places were to be sacred. According to the Kaby Dreaming, Yiningie, the spirit of the gods, often took the form of a rainbow. Yiningie was killed in a fight with a bad man, coming to the rescue of a beautiful maiden. He was broken apart by a killing boomerang, when he crashed into the cliffs, his spirit coloured the sands. This is the ancient Dreamtime story for how Rainbow Beach and the Coloured Sands were formed.

I do love all you shots. I was wanting to take still pictures also so now I have ideas for me.

Your son is so much like my young Grandson Braedon. When he was that age.
