Pancake Creek and Bustard Head

With strong winds and wildish weather continuing we’ve stayed on at Pancake Creek, which is relatively protected. Between barrages of wind we’ve managed a few walks including to Aircraft Beach, back to the lighthouse and beyond to Jenny Lind Creek.

On a more practical note, it’s two weeks since we’ve been in port and the fresh food supplies have lasted well – though the cold weather may have a lot to do with this. Water has also lasted well. This means the next challenge will be to try to last three weeks before restocking ...
