Day 43 - Coffin Bay National Park

Had some rain during the night so we were more than happy to greet the sun when we woke up. Got organised early to start our adventures around Coffin Bay National Park, still lots of Emu's roaming around town and throughout the park.

First stop was for Wayne to have a play in the sand dunes on the way to Gunyah Beach, we drove over some beautiful dunes with good hard sand. Then to the Yangie campsite which looked quite nice.

Went back to Golden Island lookout and went down to the beach for a fish or better known as 'ish' - its a rugged coastline with rips and strong currents. The only disappointment is it is so hard to capture the beauty of this place....

Had a picnic lunch while we admired the view, had a few people stop and ask if Wayne had caught any fish, none of them gave it a go.

Back into town to buy some oysters to take with us, bought 2 doz for $24 - unopened....that will be a challenge. The lady explained that most people want to eat Oysters in Summer but they are actually better quality in the Winter, yay for us! The ones we bought had been harvested this morning, doesn't get any fresher than that.

When we got back to camp Sandy & I went over to the camp office to pay our camp fees (Jacky had been out when we arrived), she gave us a run down on her whole life and then hit us with adding gst to $20 advertised for which we got basically a toilet, no showers no power and 20km from town. Oh well, it was a nice quite camp close to a Jetty where Wayne caught squid.

I attempted to open some Oysters, lets just say I wont be giving up my job to become a Oyster Shucker. We sat around after dinner to a lovely hot fire, thanks Sandy.Baca lagi
