Trip to Exmouth June 2011 PART 4

All set up at Kurrajong, Cape Range National Park. Pretty much in the same position as last year. Stephen at it again with the sunset and moon setting at dawn the next day.
The wind was foul for the first few days as you can see from our Sunbusters. But the set up was all good.
Stephen managed to launch "Son of Titanic" (another story). No fish here...but...did manage to loose a complete fishing rig...and that is yet another story...moral being tie everything on.

We did manage to catch some fish, this one of Stephen's was a glorious Spangled Emperor.
Cooked with love and shared with friends Howard and Colleen. Yummy!!!!
Just down the road is the entrance to this pretty gorge.
Stephen got this lovely portrait of the Black Footed Rock Wallaby, just before the camera battery died.
On leaving Cape Range we stayed for a few nights in Exmouth itself. Bassie flew into Learmonth and with the timing so close we could not resist seeing him. Luckily for us he arrived at lunch time and did not start duty till the next morning. So we did the Krait Memorial..
then up Charles Knife Gorge...

and finally Shothole Canyon..with Toby in the picture. Both spectacular...then back to Turtle with a feed of the finest prawns for Bassie's favourite dinner.
