It was supposed to rain before lunch so i didn't have time to do the South Cape walk and did the Fisher Point Track instead.

17-2-23:
I was up at 5:00 am to get ready, a quick dip in the ocean to freshen up and as it was still dark i could see some faint Bioluminescence in the water ... not enough to get a pic of ... then i thought stuff it, too tired and went back to bed.
awoke at 7:30 am and finished getting ready for the big walk and finally hit the track at 8:15 Am under a cloudy sky and cool temps.

I headed up and over the hill, through some dense ferns then on out over the swampy heathlands before crossing a creek and threading through an open woodland.
