On Sunday I walked around the harbour along the Manly to Spit Bridge walk. In 2016 I did this walk, about 10km from the Spit Bridge to Manly. Previously I had walked the same walk with my mother and maybe father and some of my school aged ( i think) kids . This time I only planned on walking about 4 km and then returning to Manly. I got as far as Forty Baskets beach. Apparently in 1885 a catch of 40 baskets of fish was sent to a contingent of Sudanese troops at north Head quarantine station from this beach. Hence the name.
Yesterday I walked in the opposite direction towards Little Manly beach, then on, up and down, up and down till I got to Collins Flat Beach. This is just inside the Sydney Harbour Foreshore National Park. I was not far from North Head.
Shortly my cousin arrives. She will spend the night here then I go with her to her home in Katoomba for a few days.
