Pt 2 - Day 54 - Seal Bay

This morning we pack up and head for Vivonne Bay.  There, waiting for us, is a perfect site just next to the walkway to the beach.  We set up and decide to drive around to Seal Bay.  Here, our hand is in our pocket again.  $41 for the privelidge of walking along the board walk to view the seals on the beach.  For more than double this, we could have joined a tour which actually took you down to the beach a bit closer, but hey, this is getting beyond a joke.

I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised by the boardwalk.  A very impressive path purpose built for viewing the seals.  We could have watched them for ages.  There were a lot lazing around doing nothing, but quite a few out swimming and others fighting or chasing each other up and down the beach.

After this we headed back to camp.  I went and got some bait.  The sun is shining and we can feel some real warmth in the air.  It is pretty windy but we all head down to the river/beach for a swim and a spot of fishing.  Cody is keen for a fish and pulls one in after his first cast.  A very excited young man!!!!

This afternoon the kids play monopoly and Glen and I sit outside the van and soak up some sun.  We are all most appreciative of our 3 minutes showers tonight!!!!  After tea we decide to head down to the jetty where we are told the penguins come in at night.  We get there on dusk and wait until about 9pm, however they must have heard us coming as none of them show up.  We do however, see the smallesst lighthouse we have seen so far!!!!
