White Horses & Wild Spirits

Alarmingly windy in Narooma. Noisy, battered about the body, van shaken.

Those are white horses on the usually calm inlet – going seawards because it’s a westerly. Hot, dry and dangerous in these parts.

I was concerned about staying in the Bodalla Forest rest area, but there are no other real choices away from trees. Have to risk it, though I checked the branches before I left. Just had to return to the same spot, which I did.

Today I found a GP in Narooma who is taking new patients. Hopefully it works out, and he operates – why I want a new one – with enthusiasm, energy, interest, inquisitiveness, and has a nice open vibe and demeanour.

Also checked out the Narooma aquatic centre which is, contrastingly with Batemans Bay, terrific. Fabulous hot showers, too, and pleasant staff. Impressive achievement.
