Day 2: The Death of Black Beard
... long trying to bury his head into the ground, different types of vegetation and growth along the banks of the lagoon, unfortunately NO crocodiles.
I kept looking for a way to access the beaches but the left side of the hwy is lined with what appeared to be private residences and gated resorts/hotels. This made it almost impossible to access the beaches without having to walk alllllll the way past them. So when I came to a long row of connected ...
I can't believe my luck...
