hey guys, thanks!
I'm putting up a blog today but will just give you a quick update. Didn't make it all the way up to Newcastle the first day as I wanted to stop around dinner time and put up my tent and all that for the first time, hadn't really had a chance to check out all the gear and all that. Jesus it's cold at night in a tent, haha.. Anyway met up with a friend and his gf in Anna Bay (Port Stephens) the next day and we stayed there for a day, then went up to Myall Lakes National park. Went fishing with my mate in the boat (the 6hp on that tinny has a bit of go in it!) but they had been having heavy rain for the past week or so and the lakes were up so high that the ferry couldn't even go and the water was dirty brown so no fish but still good fun motoring around the lake for a bit. Next day up to Crowdy Bay NP near Port Macquarie for some more walking and camping. My friends are only in Oz for 6 weeks and need to haul ass up to Cairns for their flight to Darwin so they took off again yesterday arvo and I'm now in Port Macquarie. Spent today so far buying loads of new camping stuff. My tent broke yesterday and it was too small to live in anyway and a lot of the gear that came with the car was pretty crap, like a table with a leather top stretched over it which means you basically can't put anything on it that isn't flat, nearly lost a good bottle of wine to that! Also got some tinny movers for the boat so I can launch it easier by myself and some storage stuff so I can reorganize the car. Think I'll hang out here for one more day and then start heading inland for a bit. No fish so far but if I've got time I'll give it a go this afternoon as it looks very fishable here with big sand flats and such. Anyway check my blog in an hour or so and there should be some pics and stuff on there. -------------------- Flying Dutchman.. soon to be fishing my way around Oz. Check http://www.mytb.org/MartinNL for my blog and if you think I'm coming near where you live, let me know!
