Day 89 Wangi Wangi Today we got up early to see the sunrise over the Tasman Sea. We had no idea what time sunrise would be so we set the alarm for 5.30am so we didn't miss it. It was a beautiful clear morning as the sun rose at about 6.15am and it was worth missing a couple of hours of sleep. We enjoyed a quiet breakfast in the early morning sunshine before setting off as we were heading to Lake Macquaire today. We briefly called at Port Stephens on the way and arrived at the north end of the lake before lunchtime. Wangi Wangi Point on the west shore was where we found a site for the afternoon and evening.

Well preparation is not going exactly to plan. The auxiliary fuel tank arrived on Friday, damaged in transit from Queensland. A replacement is not due until Friday, 25/1/08.

The trailer electrics are trialled and proven. We are still to conduct a trial pack to see if all the toys fit in. ... read more

Dear B, Hope you don't mind me calling you that. Have decided that in order to try and catch up on a few days progress this one will be very short and sweet. Also I am liking the concept of titles for my entries. Think I can use them to my evil advantage. Anyway, after the night at the opera, had breakfast, sat in a park, had mexican for tea, met Dave's friends for a drink, found a cockroach crawling up my arm, freaked out, spilt Tony's pint, told Dave's friends we were getting married for April Fools day (hilarious, will never forget Tony's face), went to bed. The next day spent morning trying to aquire a car. Dave's mate Gavin had a car sitting in his drive that he said I could use (he can't ... read more
