Day 24: Turtle Bay

0 km

Today was just for absolute relaxation,  no driving, no dirt roads, no corrugations!!

Johan went fishing in the morning. I woke up to my great sea view.

We noted that there were quiet a few turtle tracks from the night- one turtle actually laid her eggs a stone throws away from Christo’s tent!

I walked along the beach down to Jardine River Mouth. It was 2 hours return to camp. Luckily during low ride, so you can walk on the firmer sand and not be eater by crocs as the sea goes out quiet far. The river is not particularly mighty at the moment,  though the mouth is very wide. During low tide you can basically walk across it…but I didn’t want to meet my fate as a crocs lunch …so didn’t bother.

After lunch we all sort of had a lie down as it was hot and even though the water was very tempting, we didn’t swim.

We were lucky to see a couple of dolphins in the bay and Johan spotted a shark too.

Dinner was a leg of lamb , cooked in the Weber with potatoes and coleslaw as a side. Living it up !!

During the night , when I got up to go and pee and did walk the beach to see if any turtles were up, but there were none.
