A day at Narooma

Hi lovelies,

After a cool blowy night we work this morning to beautiful sunshine and just a gentle breeze.



After breakfast we decided to go for a walk on the beach at the front of the park.


It was lovely to walk along the sand.  Rock formations enclose both ends of the bay,





and there is a secluded area at the north end where Robbie thinks he might try his hand at fishing soon.



The view out to Montague Island is pretty.  Not pretty enough for Rob to agree to a trip out there, but pretty none the less.  😏


We had some debate about why these holes were in the rocks.  I think they are for penguins, or sand fairies. 😄

We did see a man fishing on the beach.  He had caught a tailor.  Robbie had a chat with him about bait/lures etc and so after our walk it was a trip into town to visit the information center, and for Robbie to collect supplies from the tackle shop.

On the way back to the ban we decided to stop again at the breakwater to see if we could catch a glimpse of more seals.  

We were so blessed.  There were more of them sunning themselves today.



This group was pretty funny, one just vegging, one doing yoga to get some sun on his belly,


one doing yoga to get some sun on his belly, 

and one snuggled from the wind.


We are surprised at how they manage to get up on some of the rocks.





They have such big and not so pretty feet.




Back to the van and as promised here are some photos of the beautiful golf course that surrounds us.


 


Judy, I think that Andrew might be in trouble with these greens.  With his power I think he should shoot for the bunkers, at least the ball would not go over the edge.😅



Back to the van, lunch and some fishing for Rob, then a nap and some more fishing.

Take it easy lovelies,

Stay safe and keep enjoying life.

Love us.

 Hi all, Here a brief overview of our 2 day adventure on Fraser Island with Fraser Island Explorer Tours. Here is a link to our trip in video format.  https://youtu.be/QY8tr093G4o We were picked up from our accommodation by our tour guide who then picked up some more of our group and headed to the barge to go across to the Island. It was very smooth no seasickness this time :) We got on the 4x4 wheel bus and headed inland to Lake Mackenzie. This was a very picturesque spot. The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters. Next we headed for Lake Wobby which was a 45 min trek in and 45 out across lots of sand. It sits on a big sand-blow which will eventually disappear. A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...

Hervey Bay and the case of the missing whales.

 Hi lovelies, It has been some 8 months since our last post.  Travel around the world has certainly changed in 2020. We had not planned to do too much traveling in the first half of the year, but we quickly discovered that us making that decision and the government telling us that we won't are two very different things. :-). Feeling the need for a bit of a break, and a touch of fishing we headed for Hervey Bay on Wednesday. We had a great drive up, even managed to stop for a quick chat with the lovely Shirley in Cooya.   On Thursday we headed for a quick trip to the information centre.  To my surprise Robbie wanted to book another whale watching cruise.  We spoke at length to the agent there and finally chose what was supposed to be the calmest day for the next week.  It was then off for a drive along the coast line from Point Vernon to Urangan.   The day was beautiful, though there were large patches of mist/fog that hung around some of the ...
