22 December - Cape Le Grand National Park

22 December 2016 – 200 429
Cape Le Grand National Park


Last night was incredibly windy! Today started with a very invigorating swim in Lucky Bay – certainly not sleepy after that, but felt great after I warmed back up.  We were fortunate enough to see kangaroos (adults and juveniles) eating the seaweed on the beach.  After breakfast, we took a walk along the full length of Lucky Bay and then up over the headlands until we were looking down onto Rossiter Bay.  By then the temperature had warmed up to 35 degrees and the flies were amongst the worst we have had on the entire trip!  The beaches however are still incredibly pretty and provided you don’t know the water temperature you could mistake the scenery for a tropical paradise.  
After lunch we swam at Lucky Bay again, and once again we could watch the kangaroos eating seaweed on the sand.  After a laze around, we drove over to Hellfire Bay to look at the beach. 
 As we drove across, clouds were forming rapidly on the mountains on that side of the national park as the wind came in from the sea; and then billowed across towards us, casting crazy shadows on the road.  After dinner, I started making some Christmas treats!
