Off we go to Melbourne, the Great Ocean Road, Kangaroo Island, Adelaide, the Barossa Valley, Broken Hill and across the top of NSW via Cobar and Moree to the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. From two weeks in our favourite resort there, we work our way down the coast, staying in places such as Kingscliff, Clunes, Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie to visit lovely family and friends before landing in Newcastle for a few days to see more loved ones, including my wonderful mother.

This trip is for Jon and me– tailor made for us, by us, starting 4 days after Jon’s 60th birthday. We will no doubt miss ‘Rockview’, our friends in Cooma and especially our darlings, Charlie and Jeni, but we are more than ready to hit the road and get outta town!

Let's get outta here

It’s time to leave Twin Waters, that’s for sure. 

We don’t really want to, but the place is just getting so packed. Today we counted eight other people lounging around our pool and even though only two were in the water at the same tame as I was, and were friendly and chatty as everyone here seems to be, it still didn’t feel right. Also, we saw about three large groups checking in around lunchtime and then at Happy Hour we had to wait several minutes to be served.

I asked Jon to take a photo of me, but not a closeup. I got what I asked for!


Thank God we’re not dining in the restaurant tonight. Our plans are wine and cheese on our beautiful deck, looking at the lights across the lagoon, then a meal with a movie. We’ve almost finished our packing, ready to head south in the morning.


Hopefully there’ll be time for a quick goodbye to the beach before we check out.



Oh and another reason that we know that it’s time to go – if we stayed any longer, we might never  want to leave.
