Back to Bicheno

My sister and I made a trip to Bicheno after my parents went back. We were accompanied by Eric and Serena.

For those of you who have not a clue what Bicheno means to me. It's my dream retiree place. Hahhaa... "Man perish without vision" mah...

The blue sky and sea of Bicheno is simply alluring.

The wind was abit strong that day, though the weather was perfect. Eric decided to take up the extreme measures of protecting himself from the harmful ultra violet rays and bone-cutting wind.

The fishermen were having a southern rock lobster harvest that day. We tried to pursade the man to sell us some lobsters, but no to avail. There were even policeman guarding the harvesting process.

Steph decided to give herself a go at camwhoring...

Once again, the blue sky and sea at the Gultch.

The Gultch makes it an ideal place for ships to dock itself and also serves as a roosting place for the seagulls.

The magic of Bicheno lies at the red bill beach, which provides the access to Diamond island.

Although this is my second time walking to Diamond island, the experience was different from the previous attempt. This time round, we had what the locals recognized as the "Old Jack Russell" to guide us. This adorable dog was our tour guide to Diamond island. Not only did she tested the tide level for us by running across the passageway to Diamond island; which was submerged by water. She also chased away a flock of seagulls and guided us across.

I took the opportunity to take a video of it barking and jumping at our kite.. !!!

Enjoy!!
