2006 Trip: Feb 2 => May 10

Gone yakabout.
Where: Australia
Mode of Transport: Paddling (seakayak) from Sydney, heading north.
Destination: To as far as I get.
If the wind, waves, nasties(sharks, stingers, crocs, etc.), sun, dumb mistakes, boredome, visa expiration date, or some other unforeseen calamity doesn't clobber me, I may just go around.
Postings should start Jan or Feb '06.
Postings will probably be sparse (many paddling days between cities with internet cafes).
I welcome any/all comments, suggestions (regarding this blog - or suggestions about the trip itself - gear, food, location, etc)
History: paddled from Syd to Cape York in '93; paddled from Syd to Mackay in '01. (interpolating from previous 2 trips (Cape York: 2000 miles, Mackay: 1000 miles) would suggest I will quit in Brisbane (500 miles) - we'll see about that.)
