It always seems easier to sleep by the coast and last night was no

exception with the sea breeze acting as the perfect natural sedative. A

good start to the day got even better when one of the elder statesmen next

to us dropped off some filleted herring that he had caught yesterday;

that's dinner sorted.



Late morning we ventured all of 20 metres down to the beach at Flinders

Bay. I was just about to yell 'shark' as we hit the sand but it turned out

to be three or four stingrays doing their thing in the shallows.



What looks to be a fishing beach with craggy rocks dotted along the way

turned out to be a fantastic swimming beach. A small jetty took us out

over the rocks into crystal clear water and we splashed about for a bit

before heading up to the lawns to dry off.



Another cycle into Augusta this afternoon with a visit to the local op shop

that netted Rachel a few bargains and then to the post office to collect

some mail (fortunately no nasty surprises).
