Kinka Beach

Still crispy nights and beautiful days. We woke to another and other than the slight smell of smoke from the people next doors outside fire the day was beautiful and we were ready to fire - a bit late today as we had to potter around a bit. But we finally headed to Rosslyn Bay and a spectacular anchorage, hundreds of millions of $ worth of boats - Graham (a boat builder) would have been in seventh heaven.

We raided the co-op bought some pickled octopus, prawns, oysters and a large fillet of sweet lip or red emperor - the fish we used to catch on Norfolk by the hundreds - $50 a kilo - Boonie would be turning in his grave. Mind you when we cooked it up that evening it was nothing short of spectacular.

Wandered to Yeppoon and had a look around the place - prawn sandwiches for lunch overlooking Great Keppel and a myriad of small islands. Back to the marina for a very ordinary coffee so that Ross could take some pictures of boats for his brother and home to a different site so we could escape the fire hoons.

Washing afternoon - toni did the clothes, Ross the van and then walked around the lake edge and saw a beaut sunset as well as a huge lace monitor wander around camp to stir up all the dogs and then wander into the bush.

 Another lovely day on the Capricorn Coast.
