152. Middle Lagoon 5

MAX & THE BOYS



These guys go really hard. They are natural hunters & play hard as well. I had all of them hanging off the Cruiser when we went searching for firewood, pulling the anchor when fishing & always they were hanging around just waiting to see what was happening next. They loved playing with the boys especially with some of their toys which clearly they had never seen the likes of.

Many ask along the way; “which is your favourite spot so far”. This has to be right at the top of the list. One day there will be a sealed road & many things will change, it is for that reason that we were really glad to have visited this place & experienced its raw beauty in an almost untouched environment.


BLUEBONE DANE


These are a colourful reef fish with large blue tusk like teeth. It was another specie that we had not previously caught & when the young boys yelled ”bluebone,” as we boated the fish my initial thought was that the name was due to the blue around the eyes & the blue teeth. The fact is, the main bone within the fish is the same coloured blue as seen around the eye.



THE THREE AMIGOS


These guys loved hanging out with Kaz; it reminded me of Kaz in her preschool teaching days. She really is a natural with young children.
