New Year's Eve!

After an extremely pleasant paddle this morning...a mere 20kms...through azure blue waters and past many very pleasant beaches, a nudist colony, one tortoise, 3 dolphins and a 1 1/2 metre shark (further justification for peeing in a coffee cup), we've arrived in Forster, my new favourite place. It's low tide and families and us have been floating down currents, sitting on sand bars and throwing back 'throw backs' - another new Australian discovery (they're miniature beer bottles that make you feel like a giant - great for someone like myself who pretends that he's nearer 5'8 than 5'7 or maybe 5'6 tall). It's heaven and there's no more paddling for the next day and a half. We've got 2 radio interviews at 8am tomorrow morning which could be tough depending on what happens tonight, we were on Channel 10 news a couple of days ago and we hit the front page of the local rag today announcing our arrival. We're spreading the prostate word good and strong.
Happy New Year's Eve!
