Day 26 Monday 6/7/20 Moonee Beach to Lawrence, sunny 19 A cool clear morning peppered with the excitement of moving on. We veer off the highway to Grafton which seems to totally flummox Gabbi Garmin as Grafton is no longer … Continue reading Banned on the Run, Day 26 – Lawrence
July 2020, Moonee Beach, NSW VeeWee takes the RV into Coffs to get the TV aerial fixed. Bats chatter in the trees at night. The lorikeets shriek and continue to poop on our cars. A nearby gumtree constantly drops tiny … Continue reading Banned on the Run, Days 23 – 25 – Moon over Moonee

Day 20 Tuesday 30/6/20 Moonee Beach, sunny We return to Coffs Harbour as Woody needs to find a firm cushion, the ever sinking settee foam is giving him back pain. I can understand why some vanners install proper recliner chairs, … Continue reading Banned on the Run, Day 20 – Awaiting a decision
Day 19 Monday 29/6/20 Moonee Beach, 19 forecasted rain was a sprinkle. The blueberries we bought in Woolgoolga are large and sweet and perfect for breakfast. Elle & El Prado go into Coffs Harbour for haircuts. We too go to Coffs taking VeeWee and little poodle Nic and a long shopping list which means a tiresome day of driving in circles, in traffic.

It’s chilling to watch as the jet skis disappear in the troughs. Two old guys (at least my age) behind me are watching … Continue reading Banned on the Run, Day 17 – Moonee Beach
