A Busy Tweed River

 28 April, Mag's River Unit

I have recently spent a few days in my sister in law's wonderful riverside unit. It seemed that my climb of Mt Maroon [yet o be blogged.] had strained the muscles on my LHS, so this visit was for rest and to enjoy the view. I had brought several projects to keep me occupied, but they were constantly interrupted by the river traffic on Sunday morning. I am pleased to report, that after 2 weeks of rest, the side is all but healed.

Looking down river from the unit.

A hazy 8 am saw jet boat thrill seekers, heading to the river mouth.

A routine passing by the rescue crew. Thankfully no dramas today.

Trying to unhook the fishing lline from a snag.

Expensive to own, big or small, but everyone appeared to be enjoying their day on the river.

Meanwhile, over the headland, the World Surfing League's first event got underway. The surf wasn't big and I felt for each group of four riders, who have only 30 mins to catch as many waves as they can, to show off their skills. It is not a sport that I follow, but the couple of hours I spent watching, was fascinating. Some big names competed during the week.
