As the nation awoke ready to vote, we awoke listening to the
rain, a little worried about how we would go heading down the highway this
morning. None the less, we packed everything up just in time for the heavens to
open even further and the rain smashed down. No worries, we just hung around
for about another hour and, when it eased a little, threw everything in the car
and hightailed it out of there at 9:30am.
Luckily the rain did ease further after another 20 minutes or so and we were able to successfully negotiate our way down the highway to Woolgoolga. While heavy at times, Gaz’s Rainex on the windscreen seemed to work well. We have found that the faster you go, the better you can see. Hence, we made the trip in record time!
We checked in, did a bit of shopping, grabbed a bite to eat at a café and then it was time to unpack and relax while we watched the rain continue to tumble down. By mid afternoon there was a break in the rain and Kev, Maz, Wayne, Vicky and I took a walk along the beach. With the clouds threatening again, we convened in Wayne and Vicky’s cabin for pre-dinner nibblies and drinks.
It was then off to a local Indian restaurant where we enjoyed some yummy food and, as always, good company. Back to the group cabin and we had another round of trivia, with the boys unfortunately gaining the ascendency on this occasion. Plans for tomorrow were discussed – our last full day.
