It’s been a while since we’ve had time to write a note. I’ll try to catch it up a bit.
Kirra Beach was very nice right in the heart of the busy-everything. We went to a show; Zingara at the Conrad-Juniper Casino- dinner and a show. So we got really dressed up. Otherwise we just poked around.
Thursday we packed up for a short drive to Brisbane. The plan was that we drive to Annie’s Shandon Inn and drop off the luggage, go to the airport and drop off the rental car. This is a simple plan but it took us all day. We got lost numerous times, met some wonderful people, ate well and
exhausted ourselves in the process.Friday we decided to take a day trip to Morton Island. We left Annie’s at 0745 and got back here at 2030. We did some snorkeling; Bosco gave me a much needed lesson, we walked on the beach, in the evening we listened to the Kookaburras laugh. The highlight of our day was hand-feeding the dolphins. We waded into the water waist deep and bent over and they took it out of our hands. These are wild dolphins that come in evenings just at sundown to feed. You are not allowed to touch them but they run into you if you’re not presenting the fish when they want them. Last night all 9 dolphins that they are tracking came in, we all had a ball.
