Oct 27 to 29  After a second overnight free camp at Kempsey we arrive in Nelson Bay to spend a couple of days with our good mates Tom and Julie at their new home. As usual, we enjoy lots of great food, wine and golf. The Newshams retained the State Of Origin golf trophy NSW v QLD.

     

Oct 27  On the road again, heading south with our main target the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria for the annual Australian Veteran Golfers Championships. Our home on wheels has a couple of additions since our last trip – a ‘Tong Box’ on the back bumper specifically designed for our Honda generator and a couple of water carriers. Both additions are designed to make free camping easier to help save money on the ever increasing caravan park fees.

First overnight stop is at Grafton. It is Siobhan’s birthday and we celebrate at a lovely restaurant on the Clarence River.
