Tide ? What tide
LOL, well we are still at Emu Park and the weather has been glorious, clear sky every day, temp 30 and a lovely shallow bay to play in. We took D'Luded on her first inter island adventure on Monday, which meant paddling for almost 3 hours but it was great. Turtles everywhere and yes the fish was caught, but an even BIGGER one was hooked but managed to break the line so we can only assume it was "Moby Dick". Went for a drive up to Yeppon yesterday thinking that it would have a couple of nice bistros for lunch overlooking the bay - WRONG, a sandwich at Maggie's bakery was the best Yeppon could manage. On the way we watched a pod of Dolphins and Pilot whales having lunch just off shore. When we got back to the park it was time for a swim, so off I headed. I had the entire bay to myself, not another person (or dog) in sight, which was great until the fish started jumping out of the water around me and I took that as a sign something bigger was down below and yep I chickened out and got out of the water.

First every living creature leaves the bay when you arrive. Then you go into the water and what happens ? The poor sweet little fish that have never harmed you jump out of the water in absolute panic and all you have for an excuse is, "something bigger is down below" !!!!LOL !!!!!! This by god or somebody else made poor sweet harmless little fish must have a trauma for the rest of their lives AND not because there was something bigger below, I`m sure the sight of you was more then enough. LOL
