Somerset

 This was built as a tourist lodge about 30 KMs around from the tip. It wasn't a viable proposition and was just left to rot.

We drive around there to have lunch, the buildings were back in the foliage, we went a little further with beach frontage brick toilets and a couple of tables and benches under cover.

After lunch, Mark took us on a short walk and we visited some graves stones, one was in Japanese. 

Next stop was shopping at a roadside store called The Croc Tent. This was a boar outside, they also had a croc but I didn't get a photo of him.
I bought Warren a cap and we got a Cape York teatowel for $30, considering where we were, I thought that was reasonable.

Home at 3.30pm, with happy hour on the beach to see the sunset.
Meals at Seisia were incredible, first night was lamb shanks, with vegetables, talk about melt in your mouth.
The last night was either fish or steak, she had told us how the fish was caught, just out in the sea and also how she would cook it. Very few people opted for the steak. I think the fish was Spanish Mackerel and it was steamed for eight minutes on a bed of spinach, absolutely delicious, served with a Greek salad and chips. Dessert on both nights was a selection of icecreams.
