Day 13
Monday, 4 June 2012
Chauffeur up early to drown some worms. Nothing biting, but he nearly trod on a pesky Snick on the way to the rocks! Packed the fishing stuff up around nine and we headed north to see what all the fuss was about over James Price Point. It really is lovely. The stark contrast between the white sand, red cliffs and turquoise ocean is beautiful. Drove along the beach from here for about 20km. Perfect beach driving. Picked our spot for a bit of lunch. Interesting to see how fast the tide goes out, like someone has pulled the plug out of the bath. Still no nibbles on the fishing rod, so no treats for dinner. If the tide comes in as quick as it goes out, I want to be up on the cliffs before high tide. Found a lovely spot south of Quondong Beach, called Barred Creek, for obvious reasons. Managed to find a way to scramble down the cliffs and enjoy a walk through the creek. Back in time for sunset only clouds had obscured the sun, however, there behind us the moon was rising. Tomorrow is the full moon and is perfect to see the Staircase to the Moon phenomenon. We will miss it, however, tonight was pretty good.
