28.4.08………. Sydney to Raymond Terrace.
Having spent 16 days in the superb company of the Sydney chapter of the McKenzie Family (aka: Andrea’s brother Mark his delightfully gracious wife Sarah and there beautiful children Chloe, Jamie, Max and baby Tia), we have managed to drag ourselves away to head further up the coast.
After finalising a few unanticipated “hiccups” in relation to the car we packed, bade our farewells to the rest of the family, which also included Andrea’s parents and left Sydney at approx. 2.20 pm.
Our original thought was to head for the Forster / Tuncurry area above Newcastle. However due to the later than anticipated departure time, have only managed to reach Raymond Terrace, which is about 30k’s north of Newcastle. Have travelled a total of about 190 k’s today.
We arrived at the campground at about 5.20, just on sunset, having missed the turnoff for the actual township whilst travelling along the Pacific Highway.
Haven’t seen much of the caravan park as a result, but it is a neat and tidy one from first impressions. We planning to move on up the coast quite early tomorrow.
The girls are suffering from shock trying to get back into the swing of the camping routine, having just spent over 2 weeks in Sydney being indulged and spoilt by their Uncle Mark and Auntie Sarah. In fact so am I!!!!!
That’s all for now…. Cup of tea beckons.
