We arrived in Monkey Mia about 4pm on 22.07.08 after what was a very boring 8hr drive journey from Kalbarri! The skies were blue and everyone was on the beach getting the last few rays of the day. We settled into our room and decided to pass the time rather randomly by doing Mr. Potato heads with our chins (all will be revealed when I add the pics and videos!)
The following morning we woke up bright and early at 7am to go down for the first Dolphin feed of the day. we stood in the water and waited for them to arrive. At about 8am 4 Dolphins came swimming into shore, it was absolutely amazing to see 4 wild Dolphins swim over to you of free choice. They swim right up to your feet and I was lucky enought to have the chance to feed one a fish. They were so gentle and took it straight from your hand. The rest of the day consisted of sunbathing to which I got very burnt and Rach didnt even get touched much to her disappointment. Later that night we also treated ourselves to a nice meal in the resort resturant.
We stayed in Monkey Mia for 4 nights as we just loved it so much. Every morning we went down to the beach early to feed the Dolphins and would stay around for the 2nd and 3rd feed as these were quieter and you got more one to one time with the Dolphins which was amazing. On the 24th July we thought we would take a drive to the town near Monkey Mia (about 70kms away) called Denham but soon realised we had a flat tyre due to a nail, so the local handy man fixed it for us and we got it properly fixed when we got to Denham. On the way back we had rain so naturally we put our lights on. The next morning we woke up to a flat battery as Rach had left the lights on over night (bless! ha ha) again the local handy man came to the rescue but not without giving us a hard time and taking the mickey out of us! So with all this fixed on the 26th july we headed off for our next destination, Coral Bay....
