Sun, 3rd May, 2015 Lagoons Beach Campground


After the rain last night we woke to a clear blue sky though cooler, 14 degrees at 7am. I could just see the sunrise through the trees.

Texted Steve Milhinch for his birthday. He will be pleased William and Kate had a princess.

Got the washing machine pumping while Steve washed the car with the washing water.

The sun was lovely and warm so down to shorts and shirt to do some more fishing after lunch. The water is so clear and just the roll of the swell so we could even see the fish in the waves. I got 4 lovely salmon, about 50 cm long and poor Steve only got one and a mullet that the seagulls enjoyed!! Steve said he should have filleted that too as they eat them here – it did have lovely white flesh.

Not the best set up for filleting but we got by. I did the removal of the blood etc in the van. We have enough for three nights and some lunches which is great.



Chatted with a couple, Dave & Jenny (ex Beerburum, Qld) who have been on the road for 9 years. He has problems with his fridge so Steve will check it out tomorrow.

Texted Pinks to see how they are going. Mick rang too after I sent a text about the fishing. He went out to the shelf and filled up on striped trumpeter etc – 40kg of fillets.

Lovely night by the fire – the kittens will have a feast on all the fish carcasses etc. Mr Possum came for a visit too. The moon is filling up and shining through the trees.

Watched the long race for the V8s in Barbagallo. Do miss Channel 7’s coverage though. Steve’s confirmation came through for Bathurst V8s volunteering so I put in a request for a campsite too.
