Day out and about

Yesterday we went for another cruise around the area to check out some spots and to find out where Ron can go fishing. A short 5km drive out of town took us to Taylor's Landing, on the Claudie River. This is one of the spots people go to launch their boats and Ron figured it looked like a pretty good spot for some future fishing trip, even without a boat.
You have heard of playing air guitar, this is air fishing!

























 We then headed out to Chilli Beach for afternoon tea, stopping in some of the camp areas and walks through Iron Range National Park. It is very pleasant in there, we saw some Buff Breasted Paradise Kingfishers and heard the Red Bellied Pitta, but unfortunately didn't see any.
At Chilli Beach we did some beach combing , walked the dogs and had afternoon tea. It was just lovely sitting in the shade and taking in the breathtaking scenery.

 Today Sunday has been an overcast day and we had a good downpour of rain after lunch with some thunder and lightning. Maybe and inch or so. Well I have just about finished preparing for school this week so I am all set for my 12 students! Will post more about school and the house etc when I get some photos to go with it.
Have a great week everyone

PS I plan to train Ron up to use the blog too in his spare time!
