Day 115 - Ningaloo (Thurs Aug 16th)

Another beautiful day in paradise! We headed of to the well again to collect water, and once again climbed the sand dunes and watched the whales off the reef from atop. Such a magic spot!!

Love you Bro








Back at the ranch, it was back to snorkeling, swimming and lazing about. Sienna even had a lesson on the dynamics of sailing!

Chillaxing!






Sailing is a breeze



Whilst all this fun in the sun was happening, we had an unexpected visitor!

Snake tracks under our camper!!
We've been told of brown snakes hanging out in the dunes around here, and someone said they had sited on recently. We're not sure if it was a brown snake, but by those tracks it was definately some type of snake cruising around our camp. We followed the tracks, they went under the camper, past the chair Damon was snoozing in, under the truck and out onto the beach. They then turned and went back into the dunes a little further down the beach from our camp. 

Snake Tracks away from our camp
It was at this point, i moved the loo down from the dune and closer to camp. I was a bit shaken, and we were extra weary now!

On a lighter note, the wind died down this arvo, which was lovely! 









Tomorrow is our last day :( Although we don't want to leave, we need to start heading down the coast, if we want to be in Perth by the first week of Sept. We've been trying to stay as far north as we can, as the reports of chilly Perth aren't really enticing us at all!
