Bardo by the sea

We went to Tathra. Saul fished out some chickens for the girls, using a giant claw.

These are our new chickens

That, pretty much, was the highlight of Tathra. The pub has a bus so you don't have to drive anywhere when you get too pissed to walk. (A recurring theme).

Winkey bus

The Tathra Hotel is also the home of Winkey, the mechanical whale.

Here he is, looking in the window. Winkey through the windows of the Tathra Hotel

I think he seems a bit lonely.

Winkey seems depressed

This is the motel section of the pub.

Trapped

All the signs seem a bit faded. For lease

And some of the fishermen seemed a bit agressive.

Don't fuck with me

The tour groups were calming though.

A smphony of beige and blue
