I think the highlight of our trip was the Dolphins. Paul and I were fishing at Peron NP and a pod of dolphins came up to the boat and put a show on for us swimming at the bow of the boat while we motored along, they were so happy diving in and out of the water for what seemed like ages. William and Tony got picked from a crowd at Monkey to feed a Dolphin.
We had a fantastic time with Tony & Shiv, William even calling Tony, Ton by the end of the three weeks.
Bremer Bay was stunning, fishing every morning (unsuccessfully) for 7 days and then off to the beach after lunch. - There are about 12 beaches to choose from. Then onto Denmark, fishing every morning again with the motor breaking down one morning and Paul having to row back to shore which took about 30 minutes to William singing - Row, Row, Row your Boat - he was not impressed!!
William got a dose of School Sores (or invertigo) whilst we were in Exmouth - so after a trip to the hospital, dressing and antibiotics, he had to stay out of the water and off the beach for 3 days - tough in 30 degree heat!! Then we got to Broome and a phone call to return to the hospital to check out his Staf infection. We waited 2 hours in emergency for a 5 min from the doctor of "Oh he's OK" want to see my fishing pictures - so the doctor and Paul spent more time looking at fishing photos and video's than he did William's leg. Come on Boys!!!!
Tony & Shiv reluctantly left us after 3 weeks and we headed up to the stunning Cape Leveque for 7 nights.
We took over 400 photos, here is a selection of some of the best, not to bore you too much!!
