Day 7 – Tuesday 16th

My nephew and he’s two kids are coming up from Newcastle for a visit today, so we’re just relaxing and killing time.

More groups seem to be packing up to leave.

I’m up early, but everyone else sleeps in.  A few groups left yesterday and a few more seem to be leaving today, so the park looks quite different when it’s less crowded.

As we have no plans I suggest a walk down to the Yacaaba Headland, oddly there are less grumbles that I expected.  It should only be 4-5ks, but a lot of it appears to be on the beach so will be a little harder going.

Liam gets up early, not sure why. I’m awake and unlikely to go back to sleep so get up to.

Bacon and eggs off the barby and we not organised quite as early as I expected.

Today we’re planning on driving north up into the National Park.  We’ll try and find somewhere on the river or lake to launch the kayak and have a swim.

Day 4 – Saturday 13th

Slow start, so it just before 10 before everyone is up.

We think about driving up to somewhere on the Myall river or Lake to use the kayak, but we’re just not organised enough so figure we’ll do that tomorrow. So today just seems to be a day of lazing around.   Suits me.

Another warm night, but it seems we’re getting a little bit more used to it.

The plan today is to drive up the beach to Dark Point.  We did this last time we were at Myall Lakes.  This was the beach we didn’t get bogged at!

A bit of a nothing day, just start to relax and do not much at all.

Mid morning, we take a quick trip into town.  A visit over to the main Bennetts beach Surf Club we spotted yesterday, but there’s no chance of getting a parking spot anywhere near the place.

A quick week away over the summer holidays.   Months ago, I looked to book in at Myall Lakes again, but all the sites were booked out.  Then some friends from the Wonderland Facebook group put up a post about an annual reservation they have at Jimmy’s Beach (Hawks Nest) that they can’t use this year.  We ended up grabbing it, so now have a week here.  It’s about the same distance as Myall Lakes, on the north side of Port Stephens, opposite where we stayed at Nelson’s Bay a year or so back.
