Day 101 – Sorry Skippy

Spent the morning doing a bit of research into where we can go in the next week. Ideally we’d like to get to Melbourne or Byron Bay. Unfortunately we hadn’t factored in for the time of year and flights are through the roof. Same can be said for trains and coaches so we’re left kind of stumped for ideas.

Perhaps there we shouldn’t go anywhere and stay here and relax. Testing this theory out we headed for Shelly Beach after lunch. Shelly is just round the bay from Manly and is a bit more sheltered from the waves. It was the perfect place to relax in the afternoon sun. Feeling energetic I went for a sea swim. I’m not usually one for swimming, I find it a little boring, but swimming without barriers and in the waves is a damn good workout.

For dinner I cooked fired up the BBQ to cook some Kangaroo steak and sausages. Initially I wasn’t too keen on eating Skippy but after the first bite I was converted. It tastes like a sweet rump steak but without being tough to chew.
