Day 4: Carrot cake and Sagar Lake

​After a fantastic sleep we were all up around 8:30am to pull up the anchor and set off. There was not much on the go so we embarked on an epic carrot cake making mission. Lots of things were grated, mixed and cut to achieve this:


We stopped in a Shearwater to try and get propane but failed. Instead we came back to the boat with ice cream to eat with the carrot cake.

Then we ate the carrot cake. It was delicious.

We pulled into our destination for the night at about 6pm: Codville Lagoon. It was pretty rainy and shit outsi​​de but Sohrabh, Eric and I decided to stretch our legs on trail on the shore. A local knowledge book said it should be about 3 miles to Sagar Lake. We were surprised to  find the lake after only about 700m. My imperial to metric conversions are pretty rubbish but I am still pretty sure 700m is no where near 3 miles. The lake front was beautiful (or we could imagine it would be on a sunny day) with nice golden sand:


Later Russ told us that he thought the sand was imported. It seemed pretty ridiculous but considering we hadn't seen any other sand in the area it also seemed plausible. We walked along the sandy beach for a bit and Eric found a wee guy:


Back on the yacht we got dry and had a delicious dinner of fish and corn followed closely but more carrot cake. We had left over icing so we ingeniously re-iced the sides of the exposed cake ready for the next sitting, brilliant!


I hit the hay about 11:30pm
