Botany Bay

A morning airport pick up gave me an opportunity to walk around Kyeemagh on Botany Bay.

Parked at Lance Studdert Reserve and walked along Muddy Creek to the Cooks River and then down Kyeemagh Beach and back. 7klm return.

Early morning calm on Muddy Creek.

Market gardens. As a young child I lived on West Botany Street, Arncliffe and there were market gardens across the road that went all the way to Muddy Creek. we used to walk through the gardens and across a bridge on Muddy Creek to the beach.

Sunrise over Cooks River.
