Recent trip up the coast with the boys - this is up at Alexandra Headlands, near Mooloolaba, about an hour from Brisbane.

Rain

Has been pissing down for a few days, but seeing as we're in the middle of a drought, not a bad thing.

Our garden became a torrent - look in the clip at the grass and you will see that there's flowing water (you can see the trees reflected a bit) over the whole lawn about 1-5 inches deep. Beside the pool a dam has formed at the retaining wall. We had to move some of the blocks to relieve the pressure that night as it had built up so much. Bear in mind that we're near the top of the hill so not much area to collect water. The noise you hear is mostly the waterfall from the neighbour's garden into ours - there are about 30-40 mini-waterfalls along the wall with 3 or so big ones.
