6/7-9 An Introduction to Jigamy and Pambula

Pambula Lake is 231 km south of Kioloa (about 144 mi). It is actually an estuary to the Tasman Sea. There are multitudes of oyster farms in the lake, which would become more or less exposed depending on the tides.
 
We had lots of rain at Jigamy (the name of our campground), which rendered art-making difficult. Sitting and talking in Yoshi's tent became one of the more productive and enjoyable activities, along with mingling with the Field Studies artists, some of whom will be featured on this blog in ensuing days.

Some side trips included investigating a logging site, attending a geological tour and staying overnight at a historical whaling station.

A few of the locals that acquainted ourselves with us during our time at Jigamy included a pony and a dog, which Cedra named "Sneakers O'Toole" (subsequently, the pony has hence become known as Seamus 'Scarface' O'Toole).
