Monkey Mia to Coral Bay

Hi Everyone after a great couple of days at Monkey Mia we headed for Carnarvon. We made a quick stop at Shelly Beach it was a amazing the beach was made completely of shells!




We made it to Carnarvon in the afternoon and set up our camp we went for a drive around and then caught the little tram out along One Mile Pier. It is an old pier that they used to load sheep and cattle onto the ships waiting in the harbour.


We reckon that the people in Carnarvon must be really healthy because it is the fruit and veg growing capital of WA there is heaps of banana plantations!
At night time Sam and I help Mum with the washing up Angus doesn't really help much at all!


When we have finished we usually sit up and watch a movie on the laptop! Depends on who behaves themselves as to who gets to choose the movie!!


We left Carnarvon and drove to Coral bay it is a great spot right on the beach I am not sure we are going to ever get Mum to leave here! The water is so clear and warm and there is fish and string rays everywhere, just
amazing. When we were setting up our camp a German backpacker came along and gave us a boogie board we were very lucky and took it straight to the beach!


Dad, Sam and I went snorkelling it was Sam and my first time we both reckon we have a new hobby now! It took us a little while to work it out and you have to keep the snorkle out of the water!! It was unbelieveable there are so many fish and sting rays to see and heaps of coral. My favourite fish was the parrot fish and we saw a big black cat fish with whiskers!


Here are some snorkelling men heading from back from the sea!!


Angus and mum are going to have a go at snorkelling today but I am not sure how Angus will go he might have to float on his noodle!

We are pretty excited we finally got Sam to do a video! Here he is talking about snorkelling!



Here is a random photo Dad took of a Seagull on the light not sure why!!

Well we had better go and do some more snorkelling hope you are all well will talk to you soon.
