Tea Gardens

We took the ferry from Nelson Bay over to Tea Gardens. It's on the north side of Port Stephens harbour, and it's just across the Myall River from Hawks Nest, famous (among other things, perhaps) as the holiday home of choice for ex-Prime Minister John Howard. It's also the gateway to the complex Myall Lakes system, and the Myall Lakes National Park.



Somewhere in the Myall Lakes, my friend Paul's boat sank recently. I haven't been able to establish what exactly happened, except that "it went down backwards", and it went to the bottom, where it remains, and all aboard were rescued by another boat.


Pelicans are everywhere. They seemingly run the police and the fire brigade!
