With the Billy's now joining us we could start heading North, but we didn't get far before making the decision to call into the Historic town site of Cossack, here we checked out the old buildings and spent some money at the cafe for Coffee and Cakes, i must add it was the dearest we have been charged but .. when in Rome etc ...
Our next stop was 80 Mile Beach, Vickie and I have stayed here a few times previously but having the Billy's with us who had not been here we had to visit again. It was nice to see the trees had recovered from the cyclone that almost demolished the area a few years ago. The sites are quite large and we all had plenty of space between other campers which is always a nice thing. We bumped into some friends from our Donnybrook years, Graham & Debbie so it was nice to have a chat and enjoy a cold beer whilst the 'fish magnet' Graham told us of the many fish they had caught whilst at 80 Mile.He certainly puts in the effort and is well rewarded with the fish he catches.
The regulars have some very interesting fishing buggy's they use, how comfortable does that look, laying back with a cold drink, protected from the sun and wind, waiting for the fish to take the bait. Life can be so hard -)
