This photo taken early Sunday morning. (after sunrise) The sun coming up over the ocean is a sight to behold.
Yes, we have settled into Don Pancho and have spent a couple of days relaxing. Still getting used to all the extra space. Steve is enjoying the cable TV which seems to be replacing the scrabble games we have been playing.
From our unit in "Matador Block'', it's only a few steps on to the beach.(haven't worked out the Spanish connection yet)
At the moment, it is a little blustery for beach walking but we have dipped our toes in the briny.
A has been doing some research on the Turtle watching at Mon Repos. Queensland Parks and Wildlife manage the Conservation Park. They have implemented limited ticketed access. Mon Repos supports the largest concentration of nesting marineland turtles in the South Pacific region. Successful breeding here is critical for the survival of these endangered species. Ranger guided tours are after dark. Between Nov and March the turtles come up to the beach to lay the eggs. We are hoping to see the hatchlings making there way back to the sea. It means digging out some warm clothing as it can be cold at night and there could be a wait of up to 5 hours to see the turtles. Not sure about photos. The brochure advises limited photo opportunities.
