Marra Holiday Jan 2007

January 3rd to 5th

We spent a few days at Mackies (friend of James) holiday house on the Hawksbury River. Picked up his boat at Brooklyn and motored over to his house on the river at MarraMarra Creek (about 20 mins). The most beautiful spot right on the water....pull the boat up on the private wharf and you are set.

We spent the first evening enjoying the small beach and drinking wine. The following day we motored in the boat across to Potonga Beach and took a swim and had fish & Chips. We didn't get any fishing in this time round so plan to do it on the next trip.


Private jetty.......

It was Charlotte's first trip on a boat and she took to it like a professional, in fact sleep each trip in the boat. Not sure how she managed it as it was both rough and noisy but she did. Bonnie on the other hand is not an old sea dog. She shook from the minute she got on the boat until the minute she got off. In fact I am sure I saw her kiss the ground when we returned to land. I think with few more trips she would get used to it. She did however love the visit to the beach and the swim which I think more then made up for the other pain.
