Coogee Beach

Hi everyone. I'm really sorry that I didn't do my blog last week. I was just really busy. Anyway I went to Coogee Beach.


I got fish and chips with my mum. The funny thing about the fish and chip shop is that they call it Chish and Fips. It's weird and a little bit funny.

I found a nice frangipani on the frangipani tree.

Here is a photo of me with the frangipani flowers in my hair.





Here is also a picture of me in front of Wedding Cake island (the island is that tiny rock you can see behind me).

I first had a monkey shape with little spikes coming out, then I put beads on the spikes and then I iron the beads and peel it off.
