Today was sunny and warm which was fortunate as it was washing day. I was checking the washing hanging from our awning when a couple of our Roadie friends drove into the caravan park. We haven’t seen Pam and Ray since before Covid, so it was a lovely surprise. After they set up camp we all walked to the Lobster Shack for lunch.
Lobster Shack is a misnomer- the restaurant is huge with large indoor and outdoor dining areas. We sat outside under the shade overlooking the ocean enjoying our meals and catching up.
The clothes lines are long and narrow, with gaps between the lines that are too small. This results in washing taking a long time to dry, even when the sun is shining. We kept having to rearrange our clothes on the lines to get everything dry.
We drove to nearby Lake Thetis to see the stromatolites. This type of organism first appeared on earth 3.5 billion years ago. The water today was not very clear so I found a better photo of the stromatolites in a google review.
This shingleback lizard was slowly sauntering along the path to the lake, where we also found more wildflowers. The first flower is tiny, only the size of a sesame seed.
After a short drive on a gravel road we walked the steps up to the Hansen Bay Lookout. It was lovely to have sunshine all day!
The full moon had already risen when the sun was setting behind the swimming pool.
