Bondi Beach We made it to Newcastle Australia, arrived here yesterday with no driving problems. I drove from Sydney to Newcastle, it sure felt strange driving on the left side of the road and sitting on the right side of the vehicle. Louie was my co-pilot, along with my GPS Unit. GPS worked great, it brought us right to the front door of our hotel.
Parked right out front of the hotel, and a cop pulled up along side me and stated that I was parked in a no parking area.
I had not even got out of the car yet. The young guy at the hotel said that I was in a no parking zone, and to just move ahead a couple of car lengths, and i looked to my right and there was a cop. He began to give me the third degree, and I just told him I was a stupid Canadian, and did not realize i was in a no Parking area, and all he said was have a good day mate, and drove off.
Today we are kind of having a down day, to recharge the batteries. Our hotel is very nice, the rental vehicle

Bondi Beach is very nice, no complaints. We met up with Johnson's, and we went out for supper last night right here in the hotel. It was Janices birthday.
Everything is going great, having a fantastic time with Anne & Louie. we are here for another two nights, then back on the road headed North to Noosa Head.

Hi from another stupid Canadian haha!!! Glad all is going well. I love the pictures and the beach makes me wish I was there too!!! How is Sheila and her feet? Hope she is doing ok, I know she is a trooper though.. On Sunday we had another dump of snow and made the National(must remember to ask Ed if he heard this LOL) we had about 3ft in a 24 hr span. I for one am hoping winter will be over soon. Otherwise everything is ok, still a little crippled but getting better. Well enjoy your holiday, sounds like great fun, have a drink for me!!!!!(or two) Doreen
