Today was full of 'oohs' and 'aahs' as we explored the area north of St Helens, past Binalong Bay, known as the 'Bay of Fires'. Many think it was named this because of the many orange lichen covered rocks at different points, but apparently it was named this because Captain Tobias Furneaux in 1773 when sailing by saw many Aboriginal camp fires from his ship.
The sky was a deep blue, the water an unbelievable shade of aqua, the sand white as white. Constrasted with the rocky outcrops, it was simply stunning.
We stopped at various locations along the 13 km stretch of road that leads up to 'The Garden'.
Our final stop also involved the kids getting completely wet and sandy - we got a little wet too. Ethan even buried himself with help from his brother and sister. All in all, an awesome day!
