port play
this morning was going to plan. we went to aussie disposals and bought howie a new pack/travel bag - it's a good one.
we then walked back into town to catch the boat for whale watching. but alas, as we entered town, there was a phone call and it was too windy for the boat to go out. which was a shame because we had decided we were looking forward to it!
so howie consoled himself with a cheeseburger
so we walked the 15 minutes back to our motel, and drove to sea acres rainforest centre. it was a nice board walk through the rainforest. we like trees.
this is a dramatization of me not watching where i was going
this boardwalk certainly wasn't as high as the one we walked in WA
and my hope was to see a brush turkey, and it happened!
as we drove back, we stopped off at harry's lookout, which had a bunch of wooden sculptures and furniture
obviously OH&S isn't a big issue - although there were two padlocks on this gates, they weren't actually locking anything together, so of course we opened the gate just to see if we could
this is the 21st century building - and isn't it!
we then drove across the water, thanks to a ferry, to the other side of the port. we played on the breakwater and beach
and then got a different ferry back across, with our new turtle friend called tony from sea acres
we're thinking of going to the pasta place for dinner. we like pasta.
