To See NSW - Flagstaff Lookout

on

Another sunrise and another lookout. I set off pretty early make make sure I had plenty of time to get to the lookout and it was a pretty easy walk. There was a path around past town beach and it continued past OXLEY BEACH or you could go across a little wooden bridge and up to the lookout. There was a big Flagstaff at the lookout as well as some seats. 

I made it up with plenty of time which was great. There was a couple who had come up to took at the sunrise. They kept out of the way and said they were just taking photos on their phone, while I had my camera. I told them to tell me if I was in their way taking photos, and I tried my best to let them take the opportunity to take photos as well. Just because they are taking photos on their phones doesn't give me more rights to take photos over them.

They were a lovely couple and told me about the  owls in the trees at SEA ACRES, which made me more determined to want to go looking for them. As usual the couple headed off not long after sunrise and I stayed a bit longer 

There was a beautiful spider in its web which was difficult to get a photo. There were millipedes everywhere. When I went to out my jacket back on there were a few that were going to hitch a ride. They were everywhere. Funny how I didn't notice them on the way up.
