Lake Day


Checking out the wreck on the beach


The beach is also a runway for the planes
The plan for the day is to visit a few lakes since Fraser has many inland lakes. The day did not go as planned. Road closures stopped us from getting to Lake Birrabeen and Boomanjin. Having no plan B, we picked a track and drove. It proved to be a scenic drive especially to the Valley of the Giants. There were hardly anyone and we had lunch by a creek, sitting on the bridge. The downside was the mozzies having their lunch as well!
It turned out that "lake day" was the next day, though not planned. First we looked at  Lake Allom. Then we hiked about 35 mins to an unnamed lake where we had lunch and took a dip. It was TJ's first skinny dip! On our way home, we saw a sign to Lake Ga....something( I forgot the name) and took the detour. Another dip before we headed back to camp.
Driving across the bridge we had lunch at Valley of the Giants
This was the day we finally saw a dingo having a bath in the sea and a snake sunning across the track. TJ had to move it along with a stick as we did not want to run it over.
