Port Gibbon

13 February 2013 - 15 February 2013

We headed into Port Gibbon camp site and had a chat to some guys who were set up for a 6 week stay and were indulging in some fantastic lobster they had caught.  They even had their own little brewery so they could brew their own beer.  This was perfect as there was a Happy Hour area where all the campers shared many stories over a couple of drinks. 

 

We headed a bit further down the road to explore a few more camp sites and found one overlooking the cliff with our own private beach.  Gavin came to camp with us for a night and brought us in some more beer supplies.  We prepared some nibbles and took our camp chairs down the beach to enjoy the sunset.  The kids swam with the Jelly fish but did not get stung too badly and the boys had a fish. 

 

 

  

We walked down to the sand dunes where we got some great photos of all the kids jumping off them at the same time.  We met 4 big fat sea lions who were just sunning themselves on the sand.
We were able to get quite close to them and they seemed to be used to people, it was quite amazing. 

 

 

 

Craig and the kids made a big sign with the seaweed saying HELLO FRIENDS which included a big smiley face.  We drove a couple of km’s along the beach and found a great area to catch a few body surfing waves.
