Day 19 Tuesday 30th July, Bananas, Whales and Wind



Today we travelled from Port Macquarie to another lovely park just north of Coffs Harbour at Moonee Beach. After we had settled in we took a drive up a road with many twists and turns to arrive at two lookouts. The first, Korora lookout gave spectacular views in a northerly direction towards the area where we are staying. The second, the Sealy lookout had a forest sky pier that was suspended out over the forest to give even more stunning views, this time of Coffs Harbour and southerly locations. Following this we drove down to Coffs Harbour and visited the International Marina. Soon after arriving I was sure that I had seen a whale in the very rough ocean but Rob said it was the sea breaking over the rocks. Luckily later during our walk, Rob saw the spray from whale and so conceded that there really was a whale out there. From here we drove to the Big Banana and of course shared a chocolate coated, frozen banana for afternoon tea. We also visited the cheese shop and bought some nice cheeses. We finished the day off by driving further north to Emerald Beach but didn’t get out of the car as the wind was really up but the beach views were stunning. We did find some very friendly wallabies and kangaroos in the national park and watching them was quite amusing.
