I took the kayak off the van and had a paddle along the shore of the lake from the camp site at Mungo Brush.
The wind had died down considerably and the surface of the lake was reflecting the sky and the shore vegetation. Pretty. It was a nice paddle through the reeds and under a couple of overhanging tree branches.
The bird life on the lake as prolific - heaps of black swans and masses of ducks. The ducks would fly off on mass upon any disturbance. I also a saw number of small woodland birds close to shore and a large white bellied sea eagle put on a majestic show for me.
Back at camp, we packed and drove to Bennetts Beach, where we had an ocean swim and a bake on the beach. The surf was small and close to shore but the water was warm and inviting for a swim.
Next stop was Tea Gardens, for a cappuccino and lunch on the quiet waterway.
We were feeling weary so we drove back to Bennetts Beach for a snooze on the beach.
The rest of the afternoon was spent at Banksia Green. We read, rested and wandered to the beach a number of times. The sunset was spectacular with a pink strewn across the clouds and a deep blood red where the sun was disappearing over the land.
