Post navigation The Dreamtime Voyage The Dreamtime Voyage is Paul Caffyn's story of one of the most remarkable journeys ever undertaken by kayak, the first kayak circumnavigation of Australia, a 9,420 mile 360 day epic. It is an inspirational tale of one man's dogged determination to fulfill his impossible dream against all odds, including tropical cyclones, raging surf, sharks, sea snakes, crocodiles and three long sections of sheer limestone cliffs. In early December 2007, the Victorian Sea Kayak Club organised a 25th anniversary celebration of the completion of the 1982 Round Australia Kayak Expedition (RAKE) at Queenscliff. On a beautiful sunny morning, Paul in his round Australia kayak Lalaguli , with Andy Wood alongside, paddled back into Caffyn Cove to receive a marvelous reception, with Lesley waiting on the beach, champagne flowing, two pipers on the top of the headland, a canon shot and big mobs of well-wishers. At the cliff top, Paul unveiled a big lump of basalt with a superbly inscribed plaque on top, noting the significance of the 1982 around Australia paddle, which had started and finished at Queenscliff. Led by a lone piper, Lalaguli was carried in a solemn procession to the Queenscliff Maritime Museum where Paul formally handed over his kayak to go on permanent display. After Paul self-published The Dreamtime Voyage in 1994, the first print run sold out inside two years. A second print run also sold well, with the book going out of print in 1998.
