Two great days with Dougie

Port Dougie is definitely turning it on for us.  The weather has been perfect and we have had 2 sensational days gorging ourselves and working on our marketing.  Yesterday Paul and Karen joined us at Mossman Gorge where we had a nice walk and a climb over some rocks to a secluded spot where we had a picnic lunch.  A beautiful Ulysses butterfly flew down to say hi then we made our way back for a swim in the rock pools and I blew up the tyre for a run down the falls.  Then we went back to the marina for a beer and some fish and chips followed by the crocodile hunter movie before bed.








Both Arch and I had a swim to try and beat the current, and just got through!
Then today after our Sunday bacon and eggs cook up we hit the Dougie market and Kirst got some new clothes for an early birthday pressie, we had some sugar cane drink with lime and ginger which was ok and the boys got rubber band guns.  We hung out at the park in the arvo which was very relaxing, with people playing bongos and people tight rope walking, then we did a walk up to the lookout, got some icecreams then walked right around the headland on the rocks with the boys fighting off the enemy with their guns.  Then we finished the day with a beer at the marina and dinner at the Beach Shack, and said goodbye to Paul and Karen who are heading further north tomorrow.
 Can you spot Arch up the tree?



 Apparently you can still surf up here off the outer reefs!
 We rode our bikes along the whole beach up and back the other day!

Wooz lost his other tooth too, and now NaDan has a loose one! They're all becoming toofless, and now Wooz can sing happy birthday like Pa with his teeth out.

Lummos are coming up to Dougie tomorrow for some more Hall boy action.
