Day 16 Saturday 27th July, Coffee at Hawks Nest and a visit to Tea Gardens



This morning we visited the small town of Hawks Nest, calling in to see some very picturesque beaches as well as stopping at a lovely cafĂ© for coffee and a shared muffin. We drove a little further on to the lovely town of Tea Gardens and Rob thought I might be able to kayak from our camp at Myall to Tea Gardens for the afternoon. Well the challenge was accepted. On the way back to Myall Camp we collected some fire-wood as we wanted to have a fire at night. After lunch I set off kayaking. I had a head wind but it was not very strong and also I was working against an incoming tide. All things considered it wasn’t too difficult and after an hour and a half of paddling I arrived at Tea Gardens. Rob had driven there and greeted me. After a loo stop I said that I was pretty sure I could make it back for the on my own so hopped in the kayak and headed back. The trip back was quicker because I had the wind and tide assisting me for the first part and then it was so beautifully calm for the latter part. I arrived back at the camp safely and we started up our fire and watched the sun set. It was a great way to finish the day off.
