SCOTTS HEAD - 30 NOVEMBER TO 3 DECEMBER 2020

 

SCOTTS HEAD

30 November

On the road again, heading for Scotts Head which we had booked to stay for three nights. Along the way, we stopped at Wollomombi for lunch and a stroll around Ebor Falls. The falls were very pretty and there were masses of wildflowers in bloom.





We finally arrived at Scotts Head and settled into our camp. Later, we had a stroll along the beach and headland.

An early surf check at Scotts Head revealed no waves. A bike ride to Little Beach, showed some 2 foot waves with an okay shape and a bit too many surfers out.

Back at camp and after breakfast, I had a kayak along Warrell Creek. It was a surprising kayak with the water becoming clearer and shallower the further I paddled. There were heaps of fish, stingrays and even river dolphins. On the land, there were some birds, a variety of vegetation and some small sand dunes.




After the kayak we drove to Macksville for coffee and lunch. We sat by the Nambucca River with our treats.

Next we visited Bowraville and Missabotti, where Jacinta grew up. We saw her old home as well. It was still there we some minor changes.

Later in the afternoon, I had a mountain bike ride along a few tracks that followed Warrell Creek.

We woke to a cloudy day.

We sat down the Scotts Head Beach enjoying the sun, the shade a number of cooling swims.



The weather changed with strong south winds, some rain, thunder and lightning.

By late afternoon, the weather had calmed down and we visited long time friend Dick and his partner Lisa who live at Scotts Head, It was a fun afternoon.

3 December

A rainy morning, so we slept in then packed up camp for the next adventure.
