Sunday 26/08/2012 Day 63: Tourist Day Esperance.
Well another night without rain.
It was cool this morning as we caught up on some laundry; this was the cheapest
of all washing machines so far at $2 per load. We packed lunch and headed off
to Cape Le Grand National Park. We visited Rossiter Bay, Lucky Bay, Thistle
Cove & Hellfire Bay where we had lunch & Ryan caught a tiny flathead.
We went up to Frenchman Peak and finished off the NP at Cape Le Grand Beach. The
beaches were all spectacular, Rossiter Bay’s sand was like coarse salt &
Lucky Bay’s sand was like fine powder and squeaked as you walked on it. The
wildflowers were all on display. And the water was turquoise on top of the
white, white sand. We went and had a look at the Eastern side of Bandy Creek
Harbour and then strolled along Tanker Jetty where Sammy was frolicking in the
water begging for bait scraps. The wind changed from an Easterly to a Westerly
as we walked along the Jetty and it nearly blew us off. We came back to the caravan
park organised the next few days and then took Ryan & Les fishing back to
Bandy Creek Harbour. Amy & Amanda were hoping to see the Dolphins but they
must have eaten all the fish yesterday.
