AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Jet Ski Family at Dromana


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A young family on a jet ski grounded at Dromana beach. Dad was nearby, so I'm not sure if Mum and little ones were just sitting there or waiting for a ski.
I felt a little uncertain about the safety of the children.

That picture looks so inviting...Our temps are hovering around 32°. We could use some warmer temps right about now.

I was a nervous Nellie of a mom; I can't imagine not holding that baby! That is a wonderfully warm and relaxing shot.

Maybe they were just posing? Kids will be happy just to sit like that.

I remember seeing a father send his daughter over a hump sledding recently; when the daughter fell off the sled and cried, mom rescued her. So unlike my husband, who would have expressed caution.

I am sure they were having fun..I did think the children very young to be on that jet ski.

Looks like they are flying, well, in imagination! Happy shot!

It is such a cute shot. Let's hope kiddos were jet skiing in their imagination while waiting for dad to come back for his ride.

Hi!
I can see why you were concerned. I would be, Maybe the little one but not the baby. Have a great day!

Looks like they're having fun, but you're correct, they should have flotation belts or vest on.
