A great last day.

Well for Coral Bay at least….
After an intensive project based school work morning, we (well - Mum actually) packed our lunches, snorkeling gear and beach items and of we went 4wd-ing though sandy tracks in order to find …. well something, well … actually anything would be good…
And find them we did! We ended up on a virtually isolated beach which the swell meant we couldn’t really get a good snorkeling session in. However the beaches and the scenery and the whether were all just superb. The driving was fun too!
Upon return to civilization (population 130 residents!) saw the girls hit the beach and Dad hit the tire pump (hopefully they’ll stay up).
Dad then went for a significant snorkel by himself out towards the reef edge (only got halfway there) and had the time of his life – it was fantastic. He returned to find the girls had spent their time on the beach creating a series of games with balls and sand challenges.
After dinner out and pack up we head off to Monkey Mia tomorrow and thus south of the tropics.May need to pull out the extra blankets (hopefully not the jumpers yet).
