My brother and I were fond of machines and were keen to get in and explore the buildings in the quarantine station at Point Nepean during the day. Mainly because these buildings aren’t accessible at night, so the only way you can explore them is to suck it up and do it during the day. We had our whole day planned out – we would take a bus to the forts, I could complete my photography assignment, catch the bus back and at the last part of the day, just before it closes, do an examination at the hospital so that there is less chance of people hanging around. As always, things didn’t go according to plan.
To start the day, on my way to pick up my brother, I was in a car accident that was completely my fault and I was very upset. No one got hurt and it was something really, really small, which is great, but let’s face it, it still sucks and I had to figure out right after Christmas where I could take out $625 for my insurance deductible and also pay for school fees and uniform for my son who is going to school in a few weeks. I was stressed and upset and we basically canceled the whole day. I arranged my insurance affairs and my father urged me to go anyway. Why mop all day? He was absolutely right! So off we went.
We changed plans a bit and decided not to go to the forts and just focus on the quarantine station area and maybe a walk to the cemetery. I could also take some photos while we were there and finish my photography assignment.
The first building we tackled was the old armory. This was a cute little building and it was perfect for one

spooky shooting. There wasn’t really anything paranormal going on here, but it was run down and perfect for some photos.
After I got that out of the way, we went to the hospital. It was a beautiful warm day of around 27 degrees. Clear air, during the school holidays in a park on the water. You do the math… it was incredibly full! We took a short walk around the hospital area. People were coming in and out and the sound was traveling in all directions. You can hear people upstairs, downstairs, outside and basically anywhere, anytime. It meant that EVPs were beautiful

a lot because there was too much pollution. We had an ovilus device with us and paid extra attention to the responses. We noted that there would be a lot of interference from everyone’s devices, so any response we got should be a pretty convincing direct response. Even then I probably would have questioned it. In addition, we could only use ourselves (and of course my camera).

I took a few pictures and there is nothing special to report. I also had to be careful because people were popping up everywhere, so if anyone came across my photo, I deleted the photo so there wasn’t any confusion later when I was looking through the photos. The energy in the hospital was very heavy and tight. It was confined to a certain area of the upper floor. We both felt heavy and both had tightness in our chests. But of course it was a musty old building that smelled and never had windows open or ventilated, so we attributed many of our physical symptoms to this. We asked some questions and walked around, but it got too busy.
We took a break and walked around the quarantine station itself and enjoyed the history that all these buildings had to offer. We have also worked out a plan for when we return in the evening. Although we cannot conduct research inside the buildings, we can still walk the grounds as they are open to the public 24/7 and we can still attempt to conduct research outside the buildings! You have to work with what you can in this game!

We then walked into the cemetery being attacked, but lots of bugs and almost knocked over by numerous people on bicycles. We noticed that they are currently renovating the cemetery and adding more headstones. As they gain more information about the people buried, more and more headstones are erected. There are over 200 bodies buried there who died of disease in the quarantine station and until recently they only had 6 graves and one family plot. Very sad, but it was nice to see that these people will finally be recognized.
At this stage I was agitated and frustrated, so we decided to make one last attempt at redoing the hospital. It was busier than before! We didn’t last long. We took a few walks and tried to ask some questions, but there were kids running around

everywhere. We called it a day and headed out. Of course for me when it rains it pours and on the way out I noticed I didn’t have the lens cap on my camera (my brand new camera I got for Christmas). Once again I was very angry and frustrated with myself until my brother pointed out that I had probably left it on the floor in the armory. I love my brother…. only sometimes, but this was one of those times because he was right!
In summary: day examinations are absolutely possible… just not on a warm, sunny day near the beach during the school holidays. You have to pick and choose your time and place, and most of all you need patience. The P-word is something I’m working on. On the plus side, I have completed my assignment and we have a good plan to re-examine it. Now I just have to get back to the forts!!!!!!! If only you didn’t have to walk so far
We filmed our time at the Nepalese quarantine station and a vlog of the day will be coming to you soon!
