Lord Howe Island

We woke up to blue skies this morning and decided we would do some kayaking and maybe snorkelling later. Heading down to the hire place you could see the dust haze across the mountains from the dust storms that hit Sydney yesterday, the dust haze persisted for most of the morning. It was a big day for Weno today as she tried out kayaking and later went snorkelling as well. We hired a double kayak and went for a spin down the lagoon towards the airport (we were talking to some people at dinner who had arrived today and they had flown over a double kayak on landing, that was us!) Wendy did really well and when we got back I went out in a single kayak for a bit of a spin by myself. After lunch we went back down to the lagoon and I showed Weno how to snorkel. She really enjoyed it ( except when I touched her leg oops!) we saw some coral, lots of different fish and some Nudibrachs, finished the day with a bit of sun backing.Read more
