Tuesday May 17

No blog last night, we didn't have coverage and I got lazy after making and eating dinner!

The Elaine report...She had a bad day yesterday and a reasonable day today. In fact my lady went for a walk down to the beach today, not far but down and up about 30 stairs.

We are at Lucky Bay in the Cape Le Grand National Park. This campground has about 22 sites but is the process of expanding to about 60 including one for tour buses. Already just up the hill from us are a bundle of sites almost ready for occupation. There is also basic facilities including warm and cold showers, camp kitchen with hot and cold water for cleaning dishes. The whole shebang watched over by a very nice camp host, who also collects the camping fees. The camp also boasts a whole bunch of camera friendly kangaroos. In fact on my walk today, cutting through a bush track, I almost tripped over a few of them having a midday rest, so I chatted to them as I walked past and they did not move.

The bay is rather pretty with continual small surf, it puts us to sleep at night and a very white very fine curving beach about 2 km long. There are also some fairly speccie big rocks alongside the camp. I have taken a couple of walks, unfortunately not bushwalks but good anyway with views out over the hinterland and the ocean with the Recerce Archipelago in the background.
