Gismo Queen and her King

Day 9 - Kiana Park to Coffin Bay

A quiet, easy day today. Just as holidays should be. Sleep in, lazy breakfast in bed, dishes, showers and convened with Neill and Jude for elevenses on the lawn between our vans. On the road before 12pm for the whole 76 kilometres to Coffin Bay, oyster capital of Australia!

We hadn't booked the caravan park here because it is quite large and we didn't think it would be too busy. The lady on check in was quite taken aback but got us onto sites side by side, on drive through sites which interestingly, most of the sites are. We got set up, had some lunch a little explore of the not-very-big town that is Coffin Bay before a quite afternoon. I did go for a walk this afternoon to find the one other Tasmanian in the park and all of these emus! They actually live in the park! And their poos are huge! They did one out the front of Neill and Jude's site, much to Jude's disgust!

A quick trip to the local supermarket, and if this doesn't reinforce that we're in an oyster town, I don't know what does. Not only can you buy oyster trays in the IGA, but you can (normally) buy oysters from a vending machine on the water's edge!
