High Ambitions

With yesterday's dramas now behind us, albeit that a jetski still trailed from our transom, it was time to do some sightseeing. The Zofia Bootcamp was open for business. Sand hills adjacent to the anchorage beckoned. In fact they called out to be climbed!

The Bloke was a pacesetter
   
Beautiful prints and markings in the sand
 
It was still enough for the clouds to reflect on the ocean

We scrambled up, up, up with the fine sand, sometimes firm and sometimes soft underfoot. This is terrain that requires 3 steps to progress one step forward! The Bloke took the direct and steeper route to the top while I looked for ridges to provide a gentler path. As the photos show, it was a diamond of a morning with still water capturing reflected clouds.

An ancient old banskia tree giving some drama to the view
 
  
These are fleeting moments of unparalleled pleasure for us.

We do so hope our Irish Mermaid, plucked from the sea yesterday, after being flung from a jetski recovers fully and quickly and can enjoy some more stellar moments in Australia before returning home.
