Coast weekend...

did the usual walk back to my car on Friday afternoon before heading to Majura to do the weekly grocery shopping...

Saturday we left home just after 8 to head to Batemans Bay...did a couple of caches along the way before picking Tammie's boat up...

we did one more cache at the library at Hanging Rock before hitting the water just after midday...

it was a bit choppy on the Bay so we headed up the Clyde....we went beyond the bridge at Nelligen before turning back at doing some fishing...Tammie caught 2 flatheads, 1 snapper and 1 blue swimmer crab...I caught nothing!

we stayed at the Abel Tasman in Batehaven...we headed to Woollies to pick up some stuff before collecting some info for a virtual cache and heading back to the motel...

meanwhile found out that the boys had unexpectedly lost cricket...we play the ladder leaders in the last round this weekend...

we had dinner at Donegan's Steak House before watching the second innings of the T20...

Sunday morning we headed our near Snapper Island for some more fishing...we caught a range of fish - flathead (16), snapper (9) and mullet (1), as well as a Port Jackson shark and a Banjo shark (aka Fiddler ray)...I only caught 6...Tammie had a good fight with the two sharks - amazing neither snapper the line...

we headed back about 2:30ish...had to wait for the bridge to open & close - first time that's happened for me in all my trips...

we stopped for a very late lunch at Nelligen and attempted to find another cache - no luck...

we got back to Canberra just before 6, dropping the boat off at Jodie & Lisa's...
