Camping around the lagoon

G'day all

Plenty of times as we travel the outback we come across a lagoon, usually associated with a weir some distance away causing waters to pause in their journey to the sea.  Trees and birdlife and often on the other side away from people, the animals come down to drink when all is quiet

Very scenic. Waters have their special way in inducing a sense of calm.

Yeah - mozzies + flies both want to 'love-you-to-distraction' as they buzz around
However, it is also known that they cannot fly against a medium-strength breeze, so many campers simply activate a small fan unit to blow air across their feet and thus - no mozzie bites !
