Evening lovelies,
It was truly veg out day today.
Got up, had some breakfast, visited Nana and Gramps in the cabin, and then had lunch.
The morning taken care of, we decided to go for a walk along the beach while the tide was out.
We managed to spot quite few soldier crabs that were making their way across the sand. They were pretty quick to disappear as we tried to get close to them.
Where were a couple of larger ones who were not quite so shy. Perhaps the larger claws they sported was the reason for this.
Often the only evidence that they had been around were the "rice bubbles" on the sand.
It was interesting to see some of the tree stumps that are underwater when the tide is in.
Gramps spent some time along the shoreline looking for treasures.
On our walk earlier in the week, Rob and Gramps spotted some newly hatched Plovers. They were out again this afternoon. The photo is a little blurry, but that little ball of fluff standing on 2 sticks to the right of the photo is the chick. With mum standing guard on the left. Unlike most birds these babies walk from day one and feed themselves from day one.
Today is our last day in Tin Can Bay. It has been a wonderful trip, and a perfect first venture out in the van. Tomorrow we head back home for a short visit before we are off again next Saturday. Life of the retires is not too shabby.
We will be back on September 1st with news of our next adventure.
All for tonight lovelies. Have the most wonderful night.
