Pin It
After a rather rolly night, which thankfully settled down in the early hours of the morning, it was the wake of the first ferry that spurred us on to get up and leave. As we sailied out of Port Jackson through the Heads, it was hard to believe that two short months ago we had sailed in, not knowing about the great adventure that awaited us or the events that certainly changed our world with regard to Elaine's health. The good news is that, while she arrived in Sydney having endured almost a year of pain and struggling to walk, she left pain-free.

By noon we were motoring into Broken Bay which gives access to four major waterways; Brisbane Water to the north, Pittwater to the south, Cowan Creek and the Hawkesbury River to the west. By lunch time we had chosen our spot; a courtesy mooring in Coasters Retreat, Pittwater. After yesterday it was a delight to be back in a calm, peaceful anchorage surrounded by a national park.

Pittwater was named by Governor Phillip in 1788 after the British Prime Minister, William Pitt, the elder. It is a 5 mile long inlet with the Ku-ring-gai National Park on the western shore and Sydney's northern beach suburbs on the eastern shore, including Palm Beach, Avalon Beach and Mona Vale, all of which we explored by car, complements of Angie.

Guess we're looking at life from both sides now!
