The other weekend I was sitting out the back and I saw the clouds in the sky. It was beautiful, I just had to take a photo of the sunset! It was amazing. So now everyday my Aunty and I go and watch the sunset down at red bluff . I will walk down to red bluff from my house with my dog and she would drive down (because of her leg she can’t walk that far). I normally climb up the rocks and watch it from up there. After it goes down I would have to try and make my way down almost in the dark (because I can’t see in the dark) it is difficult. I slipped over once and slid on my bum and I have all scratches and bruises on my bum and back of legs from it! I have always in joyed watching the sunset I just love it, it is so beautiful l could stay there forever. Everynight there is always different colours in the sunset like blue,pink,purple,orange,red,yellow,etc. and each and everyone is just a beautiful as the other! The sunsets in Kalbarri are like no sunsets I have ever ever seen before. Some nights the clouds will be in different shapes, sizes and colours. Like in this photo up the top the clouds are in one spot And the blue colour is a nice dark/lighter blue with the orange and yellow rest of the sky. My homework for this term for writing on the blog is going to be based on photography and each week I will try to go to a different place each week so you can see all of Kalbarri.So there Will be more photos and if I can put up videos to come. So hope you enjoyed reading my post and I will see you next week.

Ingredients:

1 cup of self-raising flour

1 cup of plain flour

300ml of beer or soda water

1 egg

As much oil as you want to use

And any fish of your choice about 500-750gms  (I recommend any category 1 fish)

————————————————————————

Method :

1: Combine the flours into a medium sized bowl.

2: Add egg and beer/soda water.

3: Stir for about a minute or so until it forms a smooth batter.

4: Cut your fish of choice into thin pieces.

5: Heat your fry pan until the oil is very hot. (for kids doing this part have a parent near by because the oil can be dangerous)

6: Place the fish into the batter and coat it well.

7: Place the fish into the hot oil be careful when placing the fish in the oil because the oil can spit.

8: Line a plate with paper towel so when you put the fish on the plate the oil gets soaked and doesn’t run everywhere.

9: Let the fish sit in the oil for about 3-4 minutes on each side or till golden and crispy.

10: Get the fish out and put it on the paper towel.

11: Cut up some lemon and plate it up with some herbs and spices.

12: This recipe has been proven to be good by Russel, Curtis and Deb Waterman.

On the last school holidays I recently went to Lucky Bay for a camping trip with Mum and Dad.

We met up with two of my Dad’s friends and their sons, they were younger than me and they don’t go camping often. So it was fun teaching all of them how to ride the motorbikes and stuff like that.

We stayed for three days, on the first day the weather was sunny and warm, we spent the day swimming and Dad took us on the quadbike to the Wagoe rock pools, while exploring we found a fresh water spring but the water didn’t taste very nice.

When we got back that night Mum and I made a delicious spaghetti bolognaise and garlic damper in the camp oven. I fell asleep in my new swag while looking up at the stars. The next mourning we awoke to an overcast day, although the weather was still warm because there was no wind, unusual for Lucky bay!

We spent that day on the motorbikes at Wagoe beach, Dad and his friends went diving while the kids and my Mum looked for oysters on the reef, we had more luck than Dad. When we got back to camp we got our fishing gear and headed down to the beach, still had no luck with a catch but had fun with the blowies tickling our feet.

About four o’clock in the arvo, down came the rain…And boy did it pour! Luckily my Dad’s mate’s camp was a little more water proof than our sun shade with a tarp over it. We spent most of the night in their tent, playing games and trying to stay dry. Bonus for me though, my new swag was a hit and I had a nice dry sleep.

Regardless of the weather we had a great weekend, although we think we need to revamp our camping accommodation and Dad needs to not trust his willy weather app as much!
