BACK TO ELLIOTT HEADS WE WENT, AGAIN

Some of you may have been wondering what happened to us. Did we fall off the face of the Earth? Were we eaten by sharks? Or worse, midgies?

Luckily, none of the above, although the midgies gave us a fight or two. We’re now equipped with ample amounts of insect repellents and antihistamines and ready to fight another day.

Anyhoo, the last report was that we were headed south and get to the other side of Australia in clockwise direction. That was just before New Year.

Believe it or not, we got as far as Gold Coast where we skidded to a halt, not daring to enter NSW for another cluster has arisen and lockdowns and travel-bans began looming over our heads.

We up and travelled back North. We found ourselves at Elliott Heads, QLD, and dropped anchor.

Those of you who follow our adventures know about Elliott Heads as it is in our view by faaaaar the best kitesurfing spot in QLD. Luck would have it that the wind season was perfect. And we took full advantage of it. (not apologising)

Two months we were living the life, working, kitesurfing and sending the girls to local school where they made heaps of friend. Bitter tears were shed when it was time to leave.
