Its been a while since I was down at Black River Beach.
Sharon and family hadn’t been there before so we decided to go for a drive. (Jeff was sleeping off nightshift)
It was sunny until we got onto the beach then in true Tasmanian style… it rained!
Luckily it blew over and stayed away, the sun poking its head out every now and again
Lottie had a lot of fun collecting shells
Paul picked up rubbish (Happily there is not a lot, but now there is even less!)
Tiny crabs were everywhere
Digging down!
Lots of sand patterns
Black River cutting into the sands edge
We kept hearing little crashes. Once we started watching, we could see chunks of the sand dropping into the river
…
Don’t stand too close! Too cold for an unexpected dip that day
Quite satisfying to watch really…
Lookout Lottie!!
…
It was nice wandering down the river
Time for Lottie and Lisa to play in the sea foam
And…
Splash!
Enjoying the winters day
Wait… there’s one more!
…
Time to sit down for a snack…
A nice spot in the mini – dunes with great views
The sun was putting in a bit of an effort
We walked back up along the river
Hello Pelican!
Reflections
…
People come down here to get oysters… we could see the discarded shells.
Paul went across the river… of course Miss Lottie followed
Not long after we hear the sound of excited screaming at the level usually reserved for someone winning 10 million in lotto
Lottie found an oyster…
They took home a bit of a feed (I declined – not really a fan but its exciting to forage for food!)
Great day out!
Hope everyone is having a great week so far!
Cheers
