Lakes Entrance & Beaches


The parakeets wake us soon after sunrise this morning with their cheerful calls and whistles. It’s cloudy but promises to be another sunny day. We walk into Lakes Entrance along the walking track by the side of the river watching the pelicans cruising up and down and the other bird life busily going about their business. Lakes Entrance is a long thin sprawling town bounded by 2 different rivers on either side, it’s made up of numerous small businesses, holiday places and some very nice housing. The day is indeed turning out to be warm and sunny so we do what lots of Aussies do and head for the beach to sunbathe, watch the ocean and dip our feet in the water before heading back to the pool for a swim. No BBQ for us tonight, the delights of the Mexican restaurant – The Tres Amigos awaits us, shredded beef enchillades, shredded chicken & beef enchillades/tacos. We now know how those fat penguins feel, it’s very tempting to lie down on the beach and wait for morning.
