(Lake Macquarie to Boppy Hill)
We changed our itinerary by leaving a day earlier and only driving half the distance.
We left 30 minutes later than planned, at 0830hrs. Not bad! Everything fit, including cryovaced meat for the whole trip. The food wasn't packed in reverse order as I'd hoped, but access to it all is pretty easy. A great job by Col to have the car modified. Fully set up with everything we need, including cupboards, shelves and storage boxes.
We've set off on a massive family adventure. Family time, and no work for 5 weeks. Yay!!
Our first treat is driving along our own Lake Macquarie. A silver mirror reflecting the mountains, with Jordan and Jack singing a duet in the background.
Well, nearly a very short trip. We almost had a car accident just past Denman. A car overtaking us, another turned into that lane coming towards the two of us. Some swerving and breaking by all, and nothing worse than palpitations!!
We'd had a toilet and snack stop at Denman,
..then a rainy lunch stop at Dunedoo.
Thank goodness for our Foxwing awning. I spent most of the morning plotting Waypoints on our Hema Navigator (from off my itinerary). All finished.
I'm now enjoying the wet countryside and music from the iPOD through the car stereo. Almost at Trangi.
We arrived at Boppy Hill (50km east of Cobar) at 1800hrs. It was a quick set up and a precooked tea eaten by 1930hrs.
Time to relax with a glass of wine.
