Lagoons, goats and clay pigeons.

---

After the slight anticlimax of an afternoon doing washing after seeing the Whitsundays, I went out with some of the passengers and crew from "Whitsunday Magic". We sat by the lagoon in Airlie Beach and a good time was had by all. I didn't stay too late though as I had a big day of travelling ahead of me...

We left Airlie Beach around 7am and didn't arrive into Kroombit Cattle Station until the early evening, what a drive! We did manage to play lawn balls and see a few kangeroos on the way though. On arrival we painted our faces and sprayed our hair bright colours purely for the fun of it, it seemed. We sat down to a cooked meal - always welcome, and spent most of the evening trying out the mechanical bull. I'm afraid to say I only lasted a second, but at least I tried!

Everyone got up at the crack of dawn the following morning for breakfast, mustering goats and shooting. I managed to shoot 2 out of 5 of my clay pigeons and I was quite pleased with that! We had left the "farm," which was apparently the size of Switzerland, before 11 am.
