Day 21: Weipa - Sunday 26 June

The tides are flat for the next few days, so morning fishing is apparently the best. The boys headed out at around 9 am. Rick caught 3 blue salmon to put in a top rod performance, and Jim caught a big blue salmon, a hammerhead shark, a toadfish and a big stingray that went all the way around the boat. The wildlife was amazing and they saw a pod of dolphins, but surprisingly, no crocs have been sighted.




We have enjoyed our time in a place where bananas are only $5 a kilo. I bought two kilos of these little green bananas and they are delicious, but I wonder if there is a limit to how many bananas a girl should eat in one day. I guess I will know tomorrow!


Sunday night is fish fry night and we had fish and chips by the beach for tea, while we watched the sun set. The sunsets are glorious in Weipa and the colours are spectacular.
