What a glorious sunrise - from our bed we look over Lucky Bay with it's turquoise waters and white sand. The scene looked like something out of a movie because today we had the blue sky that goes with this beautiful beach.
Although the air was fresh the sun was nice and there wasn't much wind. Wind can be a real issue in this part of WA. In summertime, when the inland part heats up to over 40 DegC the winds are howling in Esperance and Cape LeGrand due to all the air getting sucked in from the ocean.
The main activity of the day was fishing. We started at 9:30 and finished when the sun disappeared behind the hills. Although our efforts didn't bring us any fish, we were lucky that a bloke next to us caught an Australian Salmon (Western Species), weighing over 12lb, and gave us half. A couple of hours later the fish was on our plates and enjoyed by all.
Although normally I don't care much for Australian Salmon, the fish book tells me the western variety is somewhat different to the Eastern and it was very tasty indeed.
The camp ground has solar heated hot water which worked very well today as the sun was shining for the most part.
Although we were planning to move on tomorrow, we are considering to extend our stay for another day.
