Day 177 – Tumby Bay to Lipson Cove – sunny 21

Sunrise on Tumby Bay jetty
Paige with a couple of squid.

Levi not as keen to hold them as Paige.
Glenn came back with 5 squid from his morning expedition.

My First Squid  not very big but hey who said size matters?
So before leaving Tumby Bay we gave it one more shot at squidding on the jetty, well it paid off with 7 Squid in 20mins. 
I had so much fun, I was catching while Glenn was cleaning them at the start of the jetty, Paige was the transporter, carrying them to Dad. It was all going smoothly until one of the squid was a tad too fresh, and when Paige saw those tentacles open up walking down to Glenn her curiosity got the better of her, she poked the squid right in the beak with her finger.
It was  only stuck for a little while, until Dad Stabbed It.
The squid that is!
Deciding to take a break and go for some lunch, I was addicted and had to go back for another try. We took it in turns, ½ hour each, this time I got 2 more and Glenn got another 1.
Camped at Lipson Cove cooking lunch.

Relaxing on the beach at Lipson Cove


Any spare moment its Blanket time.
The drive to Lipson Cove was only short, we had so much fun during the day, after dinner we packed the kids in the car with the DVD player and went back to Tumby Bay for more Squid, we got another 8, I just couldn’t get enough.

Great Post..From Tumby Bay you can take a charter trip to the nearby Sir Joseph Banks Islands. The islands are a conservation area where albatrosses, seals and porpoises can frequently be spotted.
