   Some of the group went on a cliff walk while the rest of us went to church.
I am not sure why the last 2 photos are so 'grainy'. I downsized all the photos Denys took as they were so big they would have taken ages to put on here. I think these are the only 'grainy' ones.

This is the site of an old whaling settlement and German missionaries came here to live.
I did not get to this seal colony as I was lagging behind, and when I got to the beach I did not know which way the group had gone. At least I did not have to put up with the smell!
           A wrecked flying boat which the land owner is rebuilding - he hopes!
                                      A clearer picture of a dendroglyph.
         This is the lagoon beach where we first looked for fossil shark's teeth.
