Yesterday, an unseasonably hot day, we ended up spending the afternoon at Balmoral Beach in the shade and care of a HUGE Moreton Bay Fig tree. Apparently these trees can live well over a hundred years and I would believe it looking at this one's enormous trunk, branches and roots.
Balmoral Beach has these fig trees along the whole esplanade, but we stayed with just one. The perfect spot for shade near the water's edge. These trees are part of my childhood, they are all around the Sydney foreshores and I love them.
The water is still way too cold for me to swim, but the kids did (of course) as did brave Monique.
