This was a magnificent and unforgettable day.

We arrived at the resort at 07.45 as the initial pod of dolphins were close to the shore. There is no guarantee how many if any Dolphins will appear each day. In the last seven days it has been between two and fifteen daily. Today, we had nineteen! Quite emotional really being so close to these fine animals.

Each day the Dolphins are fed a small amount of fish on up to three visits that they may make up to mid day. Today the Dolphins come in twice. It’s up to the volunteers who gets chosen to feed a wild dolphin, today, Julie gets chosen!

The second feed is much quieter. The place isn’t busy but a few people had gone on a catamaran trip or went for breakfast. We hang around and quite quickly most of the Dolphins were back.

After the day’ special a A$3 Banana Mike shake was consumed (by us, not the dolphins) we went for a swim as the temperature climbed. Four or Five of the Dolphins returned for playtime and were joined by a pelican!

So there we are standing in the water with Dolphins swimming around us. Mind blowing!!

A sweltering afternoon is followed by our first home cooked meal of the trip. “We can’t eat out every night for 3 1/ 2 months Peter” Yet to break the beer every day habit tho!

We head back down South tomorrow with Geraldton as the next stop.
