Waking up in paradise was quite something. Jazzy and I were up first and while everyone snoozed in a bit more we went to explore the beach at sunrise. The sand felt so cold and it was definitely jumper weather first thing in the morning, but so worth the view!
We got back just as everyone else was waking up and it was Happy Father’s Day to Chris! The girls jumped on him with hugs, kisses and cards. We also made some matching shirts for the family as his gift, which he loved.
It was a slow and relaxing morning enjoying the view, the slow pace. We cooked bacon & eggs, had a dip in the water and then enjoyed the beach right out the front of our campsite. Scarly loved doing her hug attacks with a long run up.
Later we went for a drive to check out some of the special spots our camp hosts had mentioned. There were sand dunes with an incredible view over a protected snorkel area. The tide was going out, so we didn’t get too long to explore the reef and the wind was picking up, but it was a good practice run for the girls. Anyway, we saw 3 or 4 turtles from shore just poking out their heads and cruising along.
The girls loved exploring the sand dunes and running up and down the beach with not a single other person in sight.
The trusty roast chicken wrap combo was a hit yet again (I reckon that’s the most frequently eaten lunch on this trip). Chris and I also enjoyed a cheeky ginger beer before heading back to camp. It’s easy to lose track of time here…
The girls voted to watch a movie together in the afternoon, which we enjoyed piled onto our bed and Chris even managed a little snooze. A perfectly relaxing afternoon!
The wind was definitely picking up in the evening, but we still managed to cook outside and enjoy dinner with a beautiful sunset view.
