Sealife day at Narooma

Well, today was mainly suppose to be about fishing... but .. somethings don't always pan out. Mind you we did go fishing.
As much as I tried to fish this morning the amazing sea life we found at the Boardwalk here at Narooma was amazing.

We first saw a man looking over the edge into the water near our fishing spot so we asked what he was looking at and he said Seahorses! So off went to check it out and yep, 2 of them an orange one and a weedy coloured one. Hard to spot and too difficult to get pictures of.

Next some seals came along and gave Lizzy a fright as she hung her feet over near the water. They played and jumped around about us.

Next the stingrays came along. 1 then a bigger one after that just cruising up and down.. Then Liz spotted a starfish. She went for a walk to see some other things and I spotted an octopus right below us.

This was like a private aquarium!!. As you can see from the photos and videos, the water is crystal clear and looks freezing!! So much for fishing, nothing much about.

Well then we went off to our daily dose of seal watching here. Great to see them just lazying about on the rocks and floating about in the water. They seem to be putting on a show for us.
Here is the video.

One decided to rest and came up on the rocks. Cute little fellows.

Home next to do some rod repairs and lunch. Tried again for tailor in the surf with some lures. Nothing as yet to report except sore muscles!! The sea swell is very heavy at the moment but is calming down.
The bar here is very treacherous and looks dangerous. Narrow and big swells.

Till next time...

New South Wales Adventure - Tenterfield

Hi lovelies, A little earlier start this morning than yesterday. We were up having a lovely breakfast by 8am. It was a little sad this morning as we said goodbye to Steph and Leo. We have had such a blessed time with them and we look forward to catching up with them again when we head to South Australia next year. As the weather was drizzly today we decided to head off to visit some of the nearby National Parks. Our day consisted of dirt roads, mossy paths, lots of kangaroos and very few cars. Gramps we are very sorry but the O Mobile is in great need of a bath. If it rains tonight I will be sending Robbie out in his swimmers to give it a wash. Our first stop was to see Thunderbolts Hideout. It is a short walk through some bush to see where this apparently "gentlemanly" bushranger hid. It was then back into the car and off to see the Tank Traps that were part of the Brisbane Line. It is a fairly visually unimpressive plac...

Hi Lovelies, This week's edition of Art Journal is very special, stunning and unique! We can't get enough of all the textures and colours going on in this page! We just love this. This wonderful page features the Dylusions 'Dy-Cuts' which are quirky and colorful pre-cut shapes which make the perfect addition to any art journal page!
