Grand Pacific Drive
After surfing Thirroul there is still enough time for me to cover some of the distance between me and Sydney. The coast road I follow is known as the Grand Pacific Drive.
It takes in some beautiful scenery but the most impressive thing I see along the way is the man made Sea Cliff Bridge built out over the ocean.
Based on all the signs along it telling you that there is always hope, I suspect it is a popular spot for depressed Australians to throw themselves off once they can’t cope any more!
The last leg of the drive before the end takes me through the Royal National Park.
Like so much of Australia that I have seen it is full of gum trees. However in the last light of day I have to stop at this spot to take a few pictures of this idyllic looking watering hole in the middle of them.
