Hello again
The days just seem to be slipping away with the temp being around 26deg. with light winds and clear skies. There was a free hour talk by a marine biologist at the camp one night which we found very informative and entertaining, as it was all about the reef, whales, sharks and all the other creatures. The neighbours planned to leave on Thursday so we had a night out with them on Wednesday watching the sun set into the Indian Ocean at the resort next door then along to Bills Bar and restaurant for a few wines and a superb meal. Most days we enjoy a nice walk along the beach for a few k/m and sometimes a snorkel too but so far have not been able to resist a visit to the yummy bakery for lunch. The wind came up today just the day I had booked a sea scooter ride around the reef. They are electric and tow you around covering up to 5 k/m around the reef, but as the sea turned choppy it was cancelled, b***** ! maybe another place will have them. As high winds are predicted for Saturday we booked in for another night here to save being blown all over the road on the way out which Steph does not like. Both of us do not want to leave this lovely place but as Broome, Darwin, Cairns and then down to Sydney & Melbourne is still a long long way to go it's time to move on. Steph has just been down to the shop so it's local fresh Prawns for dinner. Most of the families are leaving today then we are informed the Grey Nomads will move in, in droves to take their place. We leave on Sunday for Karratha which should take a couple of days to cover the 600 odd kms.
