Tuesday It was a cold night but we are up and on the road by 9ish. Our plan today is to go to Broke and free camp the night as we want to call in at Complete Campsite (Central Coast) before we go home to have some measurements taken for some improvements. It' a really nice drive through the Mudgee vineyards over to Bylong where we stopped for a comfort break and bought some cookies and lemon butter at the general store. We continued on to Denman and stopped at ...

Monday Martin cooked breakfast before I put on the last lot of washing we'll do on the road. Three loads later it's all hung out so we head into town for a walk around. A few purchases at the 's*** shop' and then we bought some fresh breadrolls for lunch at the bakery. An easy lunch at home - the rolls were beautiful, followed by an apple slice for Martin and a Danish for me. The afternoon was spent reading, getting the washing in and folding before Martin c...

Sunday Guess what - packed up and on the road by 9am we head towards Wellington for a quick stop at the info centre and a drive around.

On to Mudgee and although we' decided to 'free' camp at the show ground when we arrived we found that the cost was now comparable with the caravan parks. Not a good way to entice travellers to spend time in Mudgee. We opted for a cara...

I did start to suggest getting bikes but Martin had replied with "no!" Before I could finish the sentence. We stopped and looked at the rhinos, giraffes, hippos before coming to Martin's favourites, the elephants. We saw ostriches and one was caring for the eggs in her nest. The tiger appeared agitated a...

Friday The day is a bit overcast and cold so we thought it best to see the guys from Complete Campsite first and then have a look for satellite dishes. We've seen a different style in our travels that looks like an egg with a flat base so we think would be easier to transport. When we get in the gate we find the CC site is at the other end. Not far into the show we were offered a shoe shine. We already have a tin of the beeswax polish at home but it is near e...
