Today
+Jill and I drove about 90 minutes North of Sydney to
Bouddi National Park. The walk starts straight down and we knew we were returning the same way. I guess Crossfit box jumps and step ups are good for something. Maybe I should stop complaining about them during a workout.

| Great views - reminiscent of Cinque Terre |
The walk was 7 miles and beautiful. Parts of it reminded me of Cinque Terre, particularly the stairs. The first beach we came to at Maitland Bay was deserted when we started. Only 6 people including us and we were all hiking the trail. By the time we returned under 3 hours later there were 3-4 boats in the harbour and another 30+ people on the beach.

| Halfway through the hike with "Frick" and "Frack" |
The walk went up and down several times with looks at the Pacific Ocean along the way. We stopped at Little Beach for a while and just took it all in. Jill had walking sticks and used them the entire hike. This resulted in a sore upper body the following day.

| Sunset from dinner at Mosman Spit |
We took the Manly ferry to dinner which is such a beautiful ride. We could see where we walked from South Head all the way to Rose Bay. We also saw the netted Shark Beach again along with a start at the opera house which you cannot stop staring at regardless of how many previous photos you've already taken.
