Greetings from the Bald Rock free camping area about 10km south of Tenterfield. After several months in Queensland we have finally crossed the border back into New South Wales. The most obvious change is daylight saving. Hoorah!
We had several showers last night again at Nerang which necessitated waiting for the canvas to dry this morning. We departed around 11 after saying goodbyes to Steven, Michelle, Lili and Edi. We have our fingers crossed that they don't catch our colds.
After refuelling aided by a generous 10c per litre Coles discount we headed steadily southwards under grey skies into NSW and through Lismore to Tenterfield where we stopped for a visit to Bilo and a nice pizza for tea. Both too tired from our colds to contemplate hauling the stove out to cook. Tenterfield looks like a nice town unfortunately we are just passing through so won't be able to stop and explore. It is also the birthplace of Peter Allen..
The swag is now rolled out next to the Pajero under the awning. Susan has been wracked by coughing fits which will hopefully subside when we sleep. The Bald Rock camp site is close to the road so no doubt heavy transport thundering through will wake us in the night. Would be nice to see some sun tomorrow. I am not quite sure where we will be tomorrow night but around 400km closer to home would be good. :-)
night folks,
cheers Simon
