Cab Car 5005 preps for departure with a Jamaica-bound train, as the Victorian Sea Cliff Depot towers overhead. Built in 1888, the depot is now under the protection of the National Register of Historic Places.
These cliffs hold one of the most massive breeding colonies of Black Browed Albatrosses in the Worlds. The place is also abundant with Rockhopper Penguins

An early wakeup and hard slog to the start of the trail...except it was scenic drive with an excellent coffee stop in the late morning.
Can't go past taking in this scenery even if technically I could still touch the car!

[from wiki] Pella (known in Arabic as Tabaqat Fahl (طبقة فحل)) is a village and the site of ancient ruins in northwestern Jordan. It is half an hour by car from Irbid, in the north of the country.
Pella is located in the Jordan valley some 130 km north of Amman, and the site has been continuously occupied since Neolithic times. First mentioned in the 19th century BC in Egyptian inscriptions, its name was Hellenised to Pella, perhaps to honour Alexander the Great's birthplace. The Roman city, of which some spectacular ruins remain, supplanted the Hellenistic city. During this period Pella was one of the cities making up the Decapolis.[1] The city was the site of one of Christianity's earliest churches. According to Eusebius of Caesarea it was a refuge for Jerusalem Christians in the 1st century AD who were fleeing the Jewish–Roman wars.[2]
The city proper was destroyed by the Golan earthquake of 749. A small village remains in the area. Only small portions of the ruins have been excavated.
The University of Sydney and the Jordanian Department of Antiquities have been conducting excavations at Pella since 1979.
