0845 (17275 km) Had toast and cereal for breakfast.
0900 (17277 km) Filled up.

Lucky Bay sand was amazingly fine!

1000 (17344 km) Cape Le Grand National Park. Lucky Bay was beautiful and had really interesting sand. It was really, really fine sand. With water on it, it was a little like corn flour in water, hard if you stepped on it quickly but if stepped on slowly, you started to sink. It also squeaked so the kids started doing interesting dances & stomps. The colours in the area was beautiful - the white sand led to green sea that changed to deep blue that had white foamy waves crashing on it. The next stop was Thistle Cove. There were some rock formations called Whistling Rock. It looked like a surfing wave. On the beach, there was a huge rock to climb over and the kids started building a dam across a stream that was running on the beach. On the way back, we took some photos of the Frenchman's Peak. It looked just like a french beret.

1345 (17413 km) Back at the caravan park and had bacon, eggs, baked beans and spaghetti.

Thistle Cove

1600 (17418 km) Mermaid Leather. The shop made fish skin leather. Looks like a lot of effort to get the skin off the fish and make it into leather. It's pretty expensive too! It also the the mermaid legend that was quite good reading.
1630 (17423 km) Still raining back at caravan park.
1800 (17423 km) Had fried rice for dinner.
