We pulled up to this dock, and after checking for snakes, the captain invited us to come ashore. We congregated in a rustic shelter, complete with a fireplace.
We had a nice lunch, prepared by the captain's wife, with wine. After lunch, we took a walk in the bush. Very tropical.
We finished up the cruise about 4:00. In our rush to board the boat in the morning, the captain said we could pay at the end. Unfortunately, the captain's wife handles the credit card machine and she had left "for town", about 50 miles away. We came up short on cash, so gave the captain the balance in USD.
Near Arthur River is a place aptly called "Edge of the World".
We headed back east, about 60 miles, to this campground, stopping in the only town for groceries. We have been advised to stock up for Friday-Tuesday, as many shops will be closed.
We arrived at the campground about 6:00, and got settled in before dark.
DINNER: Leftover fish and shrimp from our restaurant dinner in Latrobe. Sides were potato wedges and tomato slices. We cooked, ate and washed up in the communal kitchen, alongside a welcome fire in the fireplace.
What did she make for you? Just got my new food dehydrator...can't wait to try it
