Mollymook and Jervis Bay, Sunday 11th to Wednesday 14th April 2010 With our kangaroo watching complete we headed off to see our friend Lynn, who we’d organized to stay with that evening. Lynn had a summer house in Mollymook. As we drove away from Pebbly Beach we kept our eyes peeled just in case anything else decided to fly out from thin air and crush our car. We arrived at Lynn’s holiday home at 5.45pm. The house was set in a remarkable location, with a definite wow factor. It was set into the side of a hill looking down upon Mollymook Beach and the national park behind. Having been built in the 1960’s it was a traditional beach home and only a stone’s throw to the beach. We waited for Lynn’s arrival who was not far ... read more

Today Rita took us down the coast to see an area called Jervis Bay, which is supposed to have the whitest sand in the world; we started off in a little fishing town called Husstleton which was really pretty overlooking Cululla Beach, a well known Dolphin and Whale watching area, we then went to a beach called Chinamans beach which was so beautiful- it was in a cove and had the clearest water and whitest sand. The sun was shining so we took a walk along there before going to an area called Green Patch which was in one of the National Parks. The land had been given back to the Aboriginies, but it was managed by the aussies because the aboroiginies like to go Walk About! It was another pretty little cove, but there was ... read more

Here are some of the pictures from Brett's sister Megan's wedding. Brett was best man for Dusty and I was maid of honour... or I guess matron of honour, but that sounds a little funny and old... After a few days of drizzly grey weather the day of the wedding managed to keep dry, with only a little drizzle just after the ceremony. But all in all the weather held so everyone was thankful for that. The wedding was beautiful and was held on one of the beaches just near the caravan park we were all staying in so we were able to walk right from there. And we all even joked that Megan was even 5 minutes early for the ceremony, and if you know Megan at all, that is quite amazing! ha ha! She ... read more

Hi All, Merry Christmas to all we hope you all had just as good a time as we did.. We had a massive present opening session with Meg, Graeme, Trish, Justine, Emily, Carlo and Arne followed by an awesome feed, we had Curries, prawns, beers, salads, wines, champagne, roti breads and other extravagant items that i cant remember at the moment. We drove up to Sydney for boxing day to see Nana Macdowell, Dad and Fluggers with his son Cam and Jess, we met up at Central station and had a coffee near bye followed by Yum Cha in China Town.. We then picked up Amy Arne's girlfriend, Carlo's kids Bella and Darcy and drove 2 and a half hours back to Huskisson. We had a second present session with the kids and Amy. By the ... read more

17/12/08 = A v.v.v.v.v. rainy day Good sleep, but woke up early again...need to sort this bladder out! Had another lovely shower (that's 3 in 2 days...body in shock), then headed off to library. Library was really good and were on for ages. Asked about nearest supermarket and then started journey out of Canberra. Had to ring garage first and check about service, because already overdue now done nearly 7000kms, but thankfully they said we could leave until arrived in Sydney - not long now! Then went to garage to re-stock petrol. Petrol man took one look at me in my shorts and vest and said "You know it's going to rain today....ehhh...really heavy rain". Said I'd heard that and skulked out. As set off on journey, realised just how right he was. Absolutely threw it ... read more
