We’re motorsailing down the east coast of Australia, from Coffs Harbor to Nelson Bay, about 150 miles, and daylight this morning was slow coming. The smoke we were in was so thick that in the dim morning light, visibility was reduced to well less than a mile.
We were within range of internet rays so we checked the news. It was reported that there were 57 fires burning in New South Wales. They’ve had high temperatures, strong winds and their share of crazies starting fires. It feels just like we’re back in Southern California! -Rich
