Day 10 - Cruizin the Lake
Tuesday, 10 July 2012
Started the day with an invite to cruise the Lake. Staff are 'obliged' to sample the cruises on offer at the resort, so we can market them! Oh yawn, this is so hard ;). Set off at 1:00 with Matt our Capt/host/guide for the afternoon. Full running commentary of the area, including all the lowdown on water levels, capacity, dam construction etc. very interesting. Historical info - the Durracks and influence on the area. Out to the island to fossic for zebra rock again. Very different from last time. The water was like glass. Up revolver creek, lots of bird life. Local sea eagle has come to expect a treat from Matt and (eventually) swooped down to retrieve a fish thrown out for him. A bit of competition from a Wedgie who attempted to swipe it off him. Lots of oohs and Aarhs from fellow (paying) passengers. All this topped off by an optional swim (for those with thick skin) and then they opened up the medicine chest! Oh yea, yes please. Cheese and biscuits as well. Yum. Eyes feasted, and tummy comfortable. Then the islands lit up by the setting sun.
We gave it a 10 out of 10 and will happily recommend it.
