On the way back to the ferry, we take a brief stop at a beekeeper's and I enjoy a few oysters freshly "harvested" this morning.
PS: Many of the landscape pictures from yesterday and today have very pale colors and appear "foggy." This is not due to the photographer or the camera. It actually looked like that because the wind carried the smoke from the bushfires raging in Victoria down here. We could even smell it.
