We Have Arrived |
Yesterday we traded the 4wd for a buggie, took a packed lunch and headed down the station tracks exploring the island. Drove over the sandunes to see blowholes where the Indian Ocean pounded up against the cliffs, then went round to Surf Point to watch the surf roll into Shark Bay. Just at our feet there were hundreds of reef sharks swimming with metres of the shore.
After lunch we went swimming and snorkeling. There were a few colourful fish swimming through the coral and in the small caves.
Today (Sunday) we are stranded on the island (Not really a hardship) due to a storm that made a boat crossing back to Denham dangerous and turned the runway into a slippery skating ring just as the light plane landed.. The pilot is stranded as well! All part of the unexpected magic living in an isolated location.
