Pics below: husband Mike and I took our two dogs Bindi (14.5yrs, black and tan) and Woogie (10.5yrs, beagle spaniel x) to Venus Bay for five nights, returning yesterday. It was very windy with hail and strong winds most days but we braced ourselves and walked along the beach each day as well as along the sheltered laneway behind the holiday house. On one occasion we were blasted with hail as waves encroached us. Our youngest daughter and three children were with us and had to drive home to Torwood drenched and hailed upon.
