Sailing in Port Stephens – April 2016

Port Stephens Pano

Niclas had a great weekend sailing the Port Stephens regatta. Four days of Sailing in light winds with sunshine and good company on Wailea.

There are plenty of dolphins in Port Stephens and we had many of them swimming next to the boat during one race.

Visit to Barangaroo Park

One of the Easter days we visited Barangaroo Park, a new development in Sydney. The park is really nice and is opposite where we live in Waverton. We were fortunate that the weather was nice until we had walked around the whole park and were heading back home when the rain hit. Luckily we had one umbrella with us and were able to get into a coffee shop and have a ‘fika’ before heading home.
