Last October (2012) we went on a 10-day caravan trip to a lovely place called Lake Grabine. Due to the time of year we chose to visit this spot we (that's two other couples, Ian and mois) were there all by ourselves, which suited us just fine. We explored the area by clambering up Decca Hill, the top of which offered excellent views of the lake below; by walking around the lake and by taking the occasional bike ride. We entertained ourselves by having the odd hit of tennis (very much a hit and giggle affair), by smacking around some golf balls (even more of a hit and giggle affair because the so called golf course was that overgrown that finding any stray golf balls was a huge challenge and sometimes took those who participated 1/2 an hour). The "boys" went out on a small boat in the hope that they might catch some fish. All they managed to bring home, however, was a bag full of carp - yuck!
The best form of entertainment, we soon discovered however, was watching the multitude of kangaroos cross from their sanctuary (a smallish island - which I assumed was not normally cut off from the mainland but was at that time separated by water as the lake was VERY full - over to the mainland and back. Very much to our amazement dozens and dozens of kangaroos went through this strenuous exercise numerous times a day (see video clips below).
That's cool. When they are in the water is the best time to ambush them for dinner. I think they'd even be OK to eat on Friday.
ReplyDeleteNow why didn't I think of that! What a great idea. Don't know about them being ok to eat on Friday though. Might have to write to Rome about that one.
