We may take advantage of the warm weather and head out for a hike/walk tomorrow. I'm wondering if anyone here might be able to suggest something new. Ideally it would be accessible by train. Usually the furthest we can travel is south to Otford or north to the Hawkesbury. The trips out west (mountains) take too long although we've been meaning to check out the Western Sydney Parklands. We'd be striking out from the inner city. Feel free to suggest anything and I'll let you know if we've been there.
We saw this giant dragonfly out the back of Heathcote about a couple of years ago (I think).
One of the last times we walked from Otford to Bundeena a pod of dolphins was swimming north as well. We noticed them not long after entering the park early in the morning at Otford and by the time we sat down for lunch on one of the beaches they were surfing the waves right in front of us. On the same walk we did see whales breaching further north and out to sea. At some point on the cliffs we stopped to look out at some waves crashing in. My partner noticed a colourful school of fish (or something) below us and before long we noticed a similar sized school about 50 meters away from the first school. Out of nowhere this enormous whale sort of pops/rolls up out of the water and turns towards the cliffs and then dove straight down.
