Week Four Day Twenty Six

John and Hope snorkeling at Woodman's Point



Feeding the birds at Jervoise Beach



Bacon butties.


Such clear water at Jervoise Beach

John went out this morning while we still slept for an early morning walk. He discovered Jervoise Beach. When he got back we grabbed our breakfast and headed out. What a fantastic relaxing day it then turned out to be it . It started off with bacon butties at Jervoise Beach. We unpacked our cooker and cooked the bacon and boiled the kettle for coffee overlooking the beach. John and Hope went snorkeling while breakfast cooked. Afterwards it was great fun feeding the seagulls the last bread roll. Naughty I know.

We spent the rest of the morning swimming in the pool at the caravan park and just relaxing. At the caravan park a butcher bird took an interest in our car windshield. For about 10 mins this silly bird was using it to slide down, then fly back up again and do it all over again. John took 40 pictures of this. You will have to wait to see it on Picasa.

In the afternoon we headed back to the jetty at Woodman's point. There I was designated photographer while Hope and John once again went snorkeling. There was loads of activity, what with fisherman, snorkelers, kite surfing and of course swimmers. The pelicans where once again there, funny looking birds. John cannot get over how fast starfish bury themselves in the sand. Once detected they cover themselves, hidden by the sand.

One of the fisherman had pulled out a puffer fish, probably one I saw yesterday swimming away, and just left it to die. So sad!
