It's been a while in the making, but we were finally able to get back to Preston Beach for some 4-wheel driving, fishing and beach-camping. Lots of small fish to be caught and Alex and Alex Jr had a good haul.
Nickey saved some poor Filipino souls who got badly bogged last night at 8:30 p.m. Half bogged in the sand, half in the water. Eisch! Their tyres were not deflated, and no recovery gear. They were fortunate we were camped within sight (~500m) from them.

Preston Beach carpark, where you deflate those tyres (but I did not initially let them down enough). I was fortunate to get the awning and roof-rack done before this trip. |

On top of the hill overlooking our usual spot. I was super-chuffed the Trailblazer got up here easy-peasy. Well, easy once Bul helped me out, and I dropped the tyres from 18-15psi. |

Our camp looking inland. The stars out here are amazing, and this with a half-moon in the sky.

Bul's fishing gear with the moon setting over the Indian Ocean. What more could one want? To be here is just so relaxing and refreshing. |

Similar photo to the one above it, but with the moon in the right-top corner. |

The camp at ~5:45am, with people starting to stir. |
