We made it to Monkey Mia early and decided to put up the tent for a change. The weather was deliciously warm. We hired a double kayak and went for a 3-hour kayak down the coast, stopping occasionally at secluded beaches for a snorkel.<\/p>\n

It is quite a neat place. You see dolphins swimming about during the day, right in close to shore. We were swimming and a dolphin came right up to us. I screamed a little and hid behind Mike. It was pretty neat though. The dolphin swam down the beach a little then came right by us again. I could have touched it, but we aren\u2019t allowed to.<\/p>\n

The dolphins come in every morning to be fed. They pick people in the crowd to feed the dolphins. It is a bit boring really. I think they should get the dolphins jumping through hoops to make it more interesting.<\/p>\n

The Pelicans on the other hand were a laugh to watch. They were being fed at the same time as the dolphins and they are real characters. We found them far more entertaining than the dolphins.<\/p>\n

Here they are all lined up like good little kids waiting for their food:<\/p>\n

The restaurant at the resort that overlooks the bay and it does amazing food. It is gorgeous having dinner there watching the sunset over the bay.<\/p>\n

We enjoyed the warm weather so much we stayed for 3 days.<\/p>\n

The next blog will be snorkeling in Coral Bay on the Nigaloo reef<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
