Australia 2019 25/4 - 28/4

Menfolk off to beach to fish.

Ben caught a beauty, think it's a bream.


Afternoon spent at Anzac Memorial in Eden (very solemn and mournful), trip to wharf and harbour, look out point over Twofold Harbour.









All lovely.

Gave the booze a good tonk in the evening with Spotify and JBL speaker helping us along.  Good fun.

26/4
Spent the day with a last fishing attempt (unsuccessful), packing up and generally getting despondent. Weather turned bitterly cold from the early evening onwards.

27/4
Travelled back via the more scenic coastal road. Very pretty.  Takes about 30 minutes longer but so worth it.

Subdued evening with us preparing for the flight home.

28/4
Unpleasant flight home - tired but unable to sleep, restless leg syndrome.
Sad to have left Oz but glad to be home.

A friend who has just returned from NZ mentioned his nasty experience with sandflies (more accurately known as Biting Midges) - those were the blighters that were chowing us alive at Eden. Julian's coils certainly did the trick.
