Bicheno

Yesterday we drove up the coast to Bicheno, it was very busy, lots of people enjoying the beach, the life saving club was having a competition day

there is a lot of granite rock here and sparkly quartz

and red lichen

we walked along a path that was called something like the Whale trail, but then we were told you only see the whales in September 😒 dolphins had been spotted earlier in the day, but we didn't see them either. 

We followed a sign that the Lobster Shack to get some lunch

the seafood on offer was amazing

David got a crayfish roll and I had the chips that came with it

roll has gone and was enjoyed!! The shack was over the road from the sea, built into a cliff, they had outdoor tables on the deck, it was very busy. The view to the water was stunning.

I went to look at the blowhole but couldn't catch a good photo with the phone

the blowhoke was just to the left of the big rock

from there we drove into the Freycinet park to go to Wine Glass Bay, not realising it was one and a half hours hike from the carport and a $20 something fee to entertaining the park. So we drove back to Coles Bay and had a look there

you can go on a boat trip to Wine Glass Bay from here.

Back in Swansea I went for a walk to the PO and then back around the Bluff.

this house had a peppercorn tree and a fig tree in the front yard

meal deals at the Horny Cray takeaway

back around the Bluff.

quilting continued on Thought bubbles in the evening.

Happy stitching.
