TERRIGAL BEACH AND ROCKY PONDS - SURF AND MTB - 21 OCTOBER 2017

20/10

A surf check not looking good but I settled for a surf at Terrigal beach with Craig and Bryce. The waves were not so good but it was nice to get wet. I managed to get one nice left at the beginning before the high tide turned the session into closeouts.

21/10

The surf was looking not so good again so I drove up to Brisbane Water National Park. I parked at off Woy Woy Road at the start of the Tunnel Trail.

The ride was about 17km with trails, tracks and a bit of drama.

I had the best fall morning. Straight over the handlebars, slam dunked onto the ground and tangled in the bike. :) No worries, the rest of the ride was good. :) I had hurt my wrist but it didn't seem too bad.

The Rocky Ponds were nice and surprising the water flow was light considering the rain from the previous day. It was such a nice place to sit in the sun on the rocks, relax and listen to the sound of the bush.

An Eastern Water Dragon, scuttled out from the rocks near me to bask in the sun.

ERINA CREEK KAYAK - 22 AUGUST 2016

At Erina Creek for a kayak.


The weather was looking changeable and it did get a little cold towards the end of the paddle.

The start of the kayak is a bit boring as it is a straight run and the highway runs beside it but there are a lot of birds and the water was glassy so it made up for it.

After a kilometre, or so the creek goes more natural.

I was so lucky today as I just noticed a eastern water dragon with it's head barely above water. As I looked for my camera, it disappeared. Once again, I was lucky and noticed it under the water. I attached my go pro camera to a selfie stick and got some pics and videos of it under the water.


I was pretty happy with the 6.16 km kayak after seeing the dragon.
