Haugh trip
Continued from page 4
For the entire week we were
there, two freighters, were sta-
tioned just a short distance from
shore. We were told the docking
fee in Sydney harbour was
several thousand dollars a day,
so they stayed outside until they
were ready to unload their cargo.
The highlight of each morning
at Palm Beach was the arrival of
parakeets on the balcony of the
house. We soon found out they lik-
ed bread and honey and this
brought more of their friends.
They were brilliant green in
colour with bright orange chests
with hands of red, yellow and
blue.
These parakeets were on
several occasions joined by a pair
of magpies.
There was a lot of jealousy bet-
ween the two species. The
parakeets were beautiful, but,
their beaks and claws looked
vicious.
in most cases, the parakeets
would win out and the magpies
would head for the nearest
telephone wire and sit there and
sauce hack.
Also from the balcony we could
see the Barrenjoey Lighthouse.
and 1 kept a close watch on two
rocks near the shore to dNermine
if the tide was in or out.
From our headquarters at
Palm Beach we made several
trips in to Sydney. One day it was
a drive to Manly and then into
Sydney 11 water.
On the way in it was by hover-
craft and the trip back by ferry.
The trip by hovercraft was much
quicker and smoother.
The beach at Manly is very
popular with sand quite similar to
Grand Bend. 14tanly was named
by Governor Philip who was im-
pressed by the manly hearing of
the area's aborigines. The Nor-
folk Island pines which line the
beach were planted between 1882
and 1884.
