During the second week of the October school holidays, Emma and I travelled up the One Arm Point road to Djoodood, just south of Lombadina. Our deputy principal, Dave Leslie, invited us along with two other couples, to his property situated on a small cliff above beautiful white beaches and very fishy reef.<\/p>\n

The week was spent almost in a blissful routine of an early morning walk along the beach with a camera, followed by a fishing expedition in the boat (catching feeds of mackeral, bluebone, cod and north-west snapper), stomping through mangroves collecting enormous mudcrabs, and finishing with an evening wander through the low-tide pools picking up lovely blue-manna crabs.<\/td>\n
