Coffin Bay, Day 2, South Australia.

The weather turned down a tad the next day so it really wasn't beach weather, we packed lunch, a huge bowl of fresh fruit, towels, reading material and headed to Gunyah Beach, 4 wheel drive track only.  All okay along the way, I mean bumpy and really bumpy with more rocks to avoid and sandy roads until we came upon this huge dune and I just looked at Daniel and thought "I don't really think so!" 

He got out checked the dune, went over the dune and disappeared.  Eventually he got back and declared that if Stew and Les were here we would have gone because we could have pulled each other out but on our own it was the park's warning that there was no retrieval service and it was our responsibility.  We reversed back to a car park where we could turn around before deciding to head back. 

On that we decided to head into Port Lincoln to do a few things before Daniel headed out to the pier for some squid fishing.  It was windy so I sat and read my novel until Daniel whistled for me to bring a plastic bag for his catch of the day.  I picked up the squid and watched as Daniel threw in his lure again.  He continued for at least another half hour before deciding to head back before dark and avoid kangas and emus on our return journey.  Dinner was steak and veges with a lovely red, movie for the night was "Killers".  What more could one ask for from another great day!
