The Balck Angus has a very straight back. They are gorgeous looking beasts. Our journey was punctuated by sightings of these and wallabies.

| Roadside in Coff's Harbour |
|
After the Merino I insisted on finally visiting the Big Banana in Coff's Harbour (en route to Mullinbimby). I confess that it wasn't quite big enough for my imaginings. I was crazy for the roadside signage everywhere in NSW but Coff's Harbour has reached heights that many can only aspire to! Rarely was there the same letter font to be seen. It may seem odd but I loved the chaos and the contrast with stately trees and wild cockatoos and the kitsch touch of man.

| The big prawn Ballina |
Almost by accident we happened upon the Big (faded) Prawn in Ballina as we headed southwards.

| A beach at Limeburner's Nature Reserve near Port Macquarrie |
So many delicious beaches so much surf. this was enroute to Port Macquarie where we stopped for a lunch of Balmain bugs. The prawn earlier must have sparked off a hunger for them.

| Newcastle Harbour |
The last night before returning to Syndey was spent in Newcastle. It is a huge coal shipping port. The industrial past is fading and the city is reinventing itself. It is a surpringly cheery place.
