More time at Coffin Bay ...

We have had a couple of visits to the shack ... one for Easter and one this weekend.

Easter was busy with catching up with friends and our now, what has become, annual Good Friday long lunch :-)

Lots of Five Loaves Bakery choc chip hot cross buns were consumed :-)


And according to John Easter Bunny is going to cut back when he visits next year ... this was Hannah and Lachlan's stash!!


We enjoyed some delicious freshly caught fish ... panko crumbs are delicious too :-)


Good Friday Cosmos with Amanda and Nat ... fun, along with our other friends who joined us it was a great day :-)


These were enjoyed over Easter too from Odyssey Oysters in Coffin Bay ... scrumptious :-)


I joined Instagram finally ...


Hannah at the playground ...


Drinks and dinner with the Mays and Halls Easter Sunday ... 



And then yesterday we headed out in the boat for a family day ...




First stop ... a visit to the Cave, Jack, Lachlan and I swam in for a look, the water was a bit cold for Hannah and Rohan didn't join us either ...




And our catch yesterday was ... I caught 3 squid, 1 whiting and a garfish and then we also caught 7 whiting and 4 tommies :-)

So fish for tea last night and squid for tea tonight :-)
