DELICATE NOBBY - 15 to 17 FEBRUARY 2023

 

DELICATE NOBBY

15 FEBRUARY

Our first stop was Crescent Head. We pulled into the point carpark and ran into Ian, a surfing mate from home.

I had a surf at Crescent. The waves were a bit sluggish with long lulls and a small crowd. I had a few okay waves towards the end of the session. Getting into to shore, I slipped on a rock and cut both legs on the barnacle shells and dislocated a finger. A lot of blood but more annoying than painful.

We continued onwards along the back roads to Delicate Nobby. We settled into a great site with shade and calling birds.

Later, in the afternoon we had a wander along the beach.

16 FEBRUARY

A rough sleep due the cuts and finger from yesterday’s fall on the rocks at Crescent Head.

We woke to a clear blue sky and birds’ calls.

I wandered down and along the beach to watch the later moments of the sunrise. It was a nice walk along the beach watching the bird life, the sun rising and the swell dropping.

After, breakfast, we wandered down the beach and lazed in the sun or under the beach umbrella. Jacinta had a few dips in the ocean.

Back at camp, there was loud base music playing. Very annoying! The office was closed so it was quite a while before camp staff arrived and quietened them down.

Back at our camp site for a relaxing afternoon.

17 FEBRUARY

I walked down to the beach pre sunrise and watched the start of a new day.

Back at camp, breakfast and off on the road.
