We awoke to pouring rain 🌧️, not what we wanted on tent pack up day. Never mind 🤷‍♀️. I got all the bags I had brought for this eventuality and we got everything packed down and into the suitcase. There’s a mess there to be sorted another day.

We made breakfast and went to drop our bag at the ‘bags to King Salmon’ porch. Then it was finally time for coffee.

After coffee we heard 901 was on the beach with her cubs so we watched them for a while. We then went for a last walk to the falls.

On the way back from the falls we saw a big male, apparently Popeye. We watched him for a while before getting our noodle lunch.
