Pulled up for a coffee on a lone bush track and found a late model commodore stripped bare. Gingerly removed some paperwork, which identified the vehicle....careful not to leave prints, and looking around nervously for the perpetrators of the crime. Reported it to crimestoppers the next day and was almost arrested myself! I was interrogated by some controlling cow who demanded to know why we hadn't reported it immediately, why I had removed evidence from a crime scene and needed to know every details of the cars whereabouts. I could barely control my anger so handed the phone to the ever patient Steve. So much for doing your civic duty!
Tom Tom guided us into Sydney where we stayed with my darling cousin whom I hadn't seen in 35 years. Still the same sweet man, after all these years, minus the gorgeous curls I remembered so vividly. Stayed in his cozy unit and copped a $189 fine for parking in a no stopping area.....Happy Australia Day!
Ventured on to Kiama and were so taken with the place we may go back.
Will be in Dalmeny with Steves sis now for probably a week...time to bring out the rods for some serious fishing.....

How exciting - over the border! We have travelled a lot of the NSW northern coastline and hinterland. Beautiful, Bellingen is how Byron used to be. The river is magnificent, dolphins are known to go up the river. Good to see you are having fun camping adventures as well as a little comfort. Keeps ya sane. Looking forward to the next update.
Hi Irene and Steve
Just viewed your blog with Dad and Dave. WE also went to the sculture garden in the Hunter Valley. If you are back in the area you should also visit the HunterValley Gardens which are superb. Keep on having fun.
Love from home
