Friday 22 August

We set off for another 4WD adventure with extreme sand driving in Cape Peron National Park. The view at the end of the road was well worth it. We saw a colony of cormorants lined up along the edge of the water as if they were at a taxi rank waiting for their turn to swoop down on unsuspecting fish. In the water we saw sharks dolphins, a turtle and stingray but that did not deter Cathy from trying to snorkel in mind-numbingly cold water. She didn't last long as there wasn't much to see. Back for warm showers then a delicious seafood platter for 2 at the Pearler's Restaurant. We met an Irish couple who had caught a bird in their front grill (presumably as Mark Sped along with Serena teling him where to go!)
