Day 38 Wednesday 20th July

Today we didn't have to travel too far to get to 80 Mile Beach. We checked in to the busy caravan park for the next 3 nights around 11 am. As we drove in, you could see the beautiful beach and gorgeous turquoise coloured sea. It was close to high tide. After setting up and having lunch, Lyn and Steve arrived and joined us. Heather and I went to a market that was set up on a lovely grassy area. The proceeds of the market went to the Royal Flying Doctors. I only bought 3 second hand novels as I am enjoying having the time to do so much more reading.  We headed down to beach because Paul and Rob wanted to have a go at fishing. We drove along the beach for several kms before the boys found &the spot&. The tide was quickly retreating so Heather and I enjoyed picking up some of the beautiful and unusual shells found in this area. The boys had no luck with their fishing but said they would return tomorrow. We went back to the vans for happy hour.
