Last night's walk at Newcastle foreshore. The harbour is very pretty at night with such alot of activity. Restaurant goers, pedestrians, joggers,
ships and boats entering and leaving, helicopters and other aircraft high up in the sky above. There are rowing teams & dragon boat crew training, even in the dark and from the foreshore you can hear them exerting effort and calling out instructions.
Chinese fisherman with glowing lures are dotted alongside the walkway. They are there to catch the Hairtail fish they love so much. My son uses what Mandarin he knows to talk to them and praise the shiny silver eel-like fish they whip out of the water as we walk by.
A beautiful, peaceful Thursday night.

Not pumped full of opium, then?

Australia spends $714 per person on roads each year – but just 90c on walking and cycling. Ahead of the Federal election, email your local candidates to tell them to change this: betterstreets.org.au/emailcand #auspol #urbanism #cycling #walking

From Better Streets:

"Better Streets is calling for a major boost in active transport funding ahead of the 2025 federal election. Right now, the Australian Government spends just $0.90 per person—we're pushing for $15 per person per year over the next decade (for more information check out the article in The Conversation).

"We’re urging all political parties to commit to $400 million annually for walking and cycling infrastructure, funding:

✅ Safe, connected walking and cycling networks in 15 regional cities
✅ Comprehensive networks of Cycling “Superhighways” and pedestrian crossings in major capitals
✅ E-bike subsidies, like successful programs in Tasmania & Queensland
✅ Enabling kids to walk and bike to school
✅ A dedicated unit within the Australian Government to oversee the active transport program

"Help us make it happen! Read our Open Letter and email your local candidates." 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️💡
