Port Hedland to Perth, Perth to Melbourne, Melbourne to Newcastle
Jayne went to her board meetings as did I.
Bar Beach – Board Meeting Pending
One highlight was standing around in the cold on the first morning with a bunch of mates trying to decide whether to surf, have coffee or go back to bed. The surf was a bit wild that day. I think most took the back to bed option.
A little less conversation, a little more action
Later that day the surf settled down a bit so I managed a surf at Dixon Park.
Next day was a trip to Saltwater. Surf number 2 on a protected Southern point. Lots of fun with Dave & Mick.
3rd surf was out at third reef at Merewether (out in the big boys playground). Lucky, the Merewether day was only 4′-5′ & a lot of fun with about 5 guys out. The day before would have been 6′-8′ and a lot of pain. Gotta be happy with 3 surfs in 3 days. Shame about all the aches & pains that come along with it. More practice required.
Caught up with some of the family. My Mum & Jayne’s Dad.
Even got to spend some quality time with some siblings, nieces & one of my nephews.
Quality Time with Nephew – Hello? Anybody home?
One of my nieces is about 2 weeks off transforming into two people. She looks absolutely radiant & says she feels 100% pregnant.
Not long now
Three days in Newy goes very quickly.
So then, just to be different, we went back to the Wild West via a different route. Newcastle to Brisbane, Brisbane to Perth, Perth to Port Hedland. Another full day of flying up & down.
Happy to report the car & van were still in Port Hedland & in the same state we left them in. Nobody washed either one. Heading South next.
