August 2013
Views and Activities this month around Thursday Island...

The "Gab Titui" Cultural Centre on T.I. re-opened in mid 2013.  This is the cafe with it's lovely grassy area - great for kids to run around.

The front entrance of Gab Titui (called 'the Gab' for short).

View of front beach, T.I., from Victoria Parade...

View from our deck South-East towards Horn Island & Cape York on a beautiful August day.

Some of the houses available for private rentals on Loban Rd facing the Tagai Primary school.  I think each duplex costs around $500/wk.

A boating trip to Friday Island on the weekend with the Hubbert family...

Friday Island weekend picnic, sand, swimming, exploring rock pools...

Milly's Cross Country inter-house carnival at Tagai Primary.

T.I.'s Front Beach on a gorgeous day, looking towards Prince of Wales Island (P.O.W.).

T.I.'s Front Beach on a photographic moment...

T.I.'s Front Beach looking towards Engineers Wharf, Horn Island in the background.

The pearl shell sculptures along the Victoria Parade promenade on Thursday Island's Front Beach.  A good place for strolling, bike riding, scooting & picnics with kids when the weather is calm.

Picnicing at Bach (pronounced 'back') beach with other families on the weekend.

Sand play at Bach Beach with Friday and Goods Islands in the distance.
