FIFTEENTH DAY – 23RD JULY
We got up early – about 6 am to watch the sunrise over the ocean. We were in the perfect spot as we walked along the inlet and to the open sea. The sun came up over the Keppel Islands. It looked amazing when the sun just peeked over the horizon, it was a big ball of fire coming out of the sea. Watched the sunrise for awhile then make our way back to the snail. I was checking out the shells deposited on the beach. There were many different kinds and have to confess I collected a few. We had a quick breaky of cereal then off we went. We arrived at Rosslyn Bay where there is a fish co-op. Graeme wanted to buy some fresh fish but it wasn’t opened yet so went for a walk along the beach. Went back and bought some fish and ice then made our way back to Rocky. We found the caravan park and booked a site for the night. We then went and did a bit of shopping. Graeme wanted to get another ‘sexie coffee’ but this time he waited 45 minutes to get it!!! Hey that is way too long to wait for a coffee – I think anyway, I hope it was worth the wait!! We then went for a drive around the place just to check it out some more then went back to the caravan park. We had showers, relaxed a bit, got changed and ready to go out for dinner. We went to the Great Western Hotel where you can buy dinner and watch a rodeo at the same time. The dinner was BBQ style food – quite nice and the rodeo was young fellas aged from 4 to 16 practicing on various sized poddy calves and bulls. It was quite entertaining and something a bit different. We then went back to camp and settled in for the night.
