Restful at Robe

We have had a few restful days here in Robe.   Restful for the Red Elephants equals, Jumping Pillow fun, Playing soccer and cricket with the other kids in the park and making new friends. Swimming in the indoor heated pool and playing a bit of tennis.  It also means long beach walks and a walk along the bluff looking for Whales and Dolphins, sadly we did not spot either.  The Red Elephants finished the Bluf walk with Hot Chips with a view of the Great Southern Ocean.  Actually besides the Hot chips that dosn't sound restful at all.

We bought ourselves a Lobster and tartare sauce and sat around the table with great excitement to try our fresh Robe Lobster.  We all agreed we would prefer to have snags and tom or BBQ sauce.

Last night the park treated us to an outdoor movie night.  It was right next to our site and we sat watching the movie in our campchairs, wrapped up in our blankets eating our Tornado's (Cornetto's) as Soccer boy likes to call them.

The weather has turned again today and we have said good bye to the sun as the Antarctic Winds are doing their thing gusting in over the ocean again, mixed with showers of rain

Today we visted Robes  Sea Life Centre.  Although not big we where personnaly taken around by a lovely lady who passed on her extensive knowledge of the sea life contained in this small museum.  We got to feed and pat Port Jackson and Banjo Sharks.  Mr Red Elephants feed a Barramundi, I'm sure he would have preferred to catch one, but thats another trip altogether.  The Junior Red Elephants where most impressed by a big King Crab and I liked the dainty little Sea Horses.  As we left the lovely lady drew as a mud map of places to see in her little town of Beachport.  Its people like this who make a trip like this.
