Sep 2019, Nambucca Heads, NSW We’re starting to pack. Woody scoots down to Macksville to buy delicious ham off the bone from our favourite butcher. Washing day is easy as we’re parked close to the laundry. Woody takes advantage of the improved weather and washes the awning with awning cleaner mix. El Prado who’s also scrubbing away admits to carrying a full- sized vacuum cleaner with them just to clean his car. Holy canoli, that’s even better than the friend of ours who carries an ice cream maker just in case she sees fresh fruit. We have a lazy afternoon … Continue reading Nambucca Noodlings – Saying goodbye

Sep 2019, Nambucca Heads, NSW We have another night punctuated with scratching, cursing and searching for the Stingoes. Those Wooli munchers really did a job on us and we’re such slow learners, we must remember that no happy hour can … Continue reading Nambucca Noodlings – A fiery sunset
Day 54, 5/9/2019 Thursday Wooli to Nambucca Heads, hot 25 We wake up scratching. Bloody midge bites, so much for the gorgeous sunset. Midges or not it’s hard to leave this relaxing place with well maintained lawns and gardens, river frontage and plenty of birdlife. We stop for a coffee in Woolgoolga (aka the Sikh town). We haven’t been here for years and we want to see how it has grown. It is much bigger and there is a second temple but we can’t smell the curry that was all pervading last time we camped here. The curve of beach … Continue reading Follow the Sun, Day 54 Nambucca Heads
