I kept it short today – we liked and needed to go food shopping in Ceduna after the last foodshop was in Esperance!!! And I didn’t mind a shorter paddling day, too. I was starting at 5.30 am in first light with no wind and not a ripple on the water, and ended in stiffeling heat […]

  Greg was using the epic plane – I had simply to paddle…no photoshop!     It was Friday 13th – and I had an open water paddle across Fowlers Bay to Port le Hunte or Point Bell – nothing really challenging or exciting. It was dead calm in the morning, and I was gliding […]

Is there anybody in the Adelaide area or who maybe knows anybody who could help with somewhere for Greg to leave our support van plus my spare kayak for about 14 days? He’s flying out on the 19th of November. Please call Greg on his mobile 0428 693254, or send me an e-mail. Thanks! I’ll be on my own again […]

The surf looked quite manageable […]

I was just napping a bit again, when I felt a breeze coming up from behind. A breeze which turned into a wind, into strong gusts and eventually almost into a storm…25-30 knots at least! Where the hell did that come from?   Experience in this area with the weather told me the previous day […]

  The tiny little black spot besides the left corner of the middle cloud on top of the cliffs is Greg…     It was going to be two long days and one night. I was not really looking forward to this leg anymore, the excitement of the achievement of “paddling the cliffs” was gone. […]
