While you were sleeping you were missing out on an awesome sunrise. I set the alarm this morning for 2.00am, had a coffee, fed the horses in the dark and then hopped in the car to travel up to Woy Woy Railway Station to meet =barmat for the first time. We then went to Maitland Beach in Bouddi National Park. It was a hike of about 1 kilometre in the dark (we did have torches) down the side of the mountain to a very secluded beach.

At first we thought that the sunrise would not be anything special as it was very overcast and we couldn't even see any stars. A short while later the clouds started to break up as the sun rose over the mountain. It was an awesome sunrise that made the water glow.

After a while we left the beach (by left I mean struggled back up the mountain) and visited Somersby Falls for a few shots of the falls. There wasn't as much water as usual but we still got a few good shots. I will post some later.

We left there and I took Matt to Hornsby station so he could make the long trip home. It was at this point in time that I thought I could make the farewell devmeet for the world tour by :iconspyed: and :iconheidi: It was only another hours drive so I thought why not!! It was great to meet the people behind deviantart.

EDIT

I have removed the frame - what do you think

Hi Malcolm, I read about your success in Paulo's journal.

Congratulations. I missed this one the first time round, so I'll collect it now.
