Monday9th December - Laurieton to Cundletown
A warm night with 21.3 and upto 28.8. Good weather for driving. Another coolish pleasant day, but they are still saying that tomorrow is going to be hot. An easy drive to Cundletown / Taree. We are staying at the Dawson River Tourist Park. At $35.00 a night it's a nice park with plenty of space. We are back onto the Dawson River, and as the toilet pictures show, only about 4m from the edge. Very nice views. We were greeted by a chatter box as soon as we pulled in. Clive was trying to set up and all this lady wanted to do was chat. She's been travelling by herself for quite a while. Sold up her house in Brisbane and now spends all her time on the road. She has one daughter on the Central Coast and the other is in WA, so she commutes between both as they don't come and visit her. Pity we are only staying here one night, as again we have stayed hooked up, so no chance for any sight-seeing. That's the problem with only staying one night in places, unless you are free camping. Still maybe one day we'll be back this way again. As with most van parks they are booked out for the Christmas period, except with a few cancellations due to the fires.
