Canberra – 21 to 24 May 2010

The trip to Canberra had been planned for a couple of months and was to coincide with a wool event that was to be held on the Sunday at the Old Bus Depot Markets in the Canberra suburb of Kingston.  Blue Snoopy would provide accommodation for “He” and “She”, our Son, Daughter-in-Law (the Kids) . . . → Read More: Canberra – 21 to 24 May 2010

Burrill Lake – 10 to 11 April 2010

The weather reports earlier in the week for the weekend included the word “rain” but we awoke to a bright sunny Saturday and a revised forecast of 25c at the coast and 29c inland.

Our destination for the weekend was Burrill Lake which is just to the south of Ulladulla on the NSW South . . . → Read More: Burrill Lake – 10 to 11 April 2010

Bylong Mouse Races – 25 to 29 March 2010

In March 2009 we travelled to Bylong NSW for our second outing with the Winnebago RV Club to attend the 21st Annual Bylong Mouse Races.  Whilst one would question the sanity in watching mice race, this event is one of the “unique” novelty events on the Australian calendar and definitely a “must do”!  It . . . → Read More: Bylong Mouse Races – 25 to 29 March 2010

Narrabeen – 23 to 25 January 2010

How circumstances can change.

You plan trips around work, apologise for not attending family events and then you don’t have to work.

We have often considered a visit to the beach during January but had dismissed the idea due to a belief that holiday makers would ensure that there were no vacancies in the . . . → Read More: Narrabeen – 23 to 25 January 2010

Kiama – 18 December 2009

As we have previously recorded, as a result of “She” having surgery in August, Blue Snoopy has not been used anywhere the amount that we would have liked during the past five months. 

Considering that the cost of registration and insurance exceeds $2,000 annually, it is no good having a motor home sitting in . . . → Read More: Kiama – 18 December 2009

18 November 2009 – Gundagai to Sydney

We were up early and after breakfast, said farewell to our friends and the other couple from Nagambie.

Our intention was to arrive back in Sydney by mid afternoon and early enough to avoid the Sydney peak hour traffic.

We stopped at Yass for morning tea and Pheasants Nest (near the Camden turn off) . . . → Read More: 18 November 2009 – Gundagai to Sydney

17 November 2009 – Bright to Gundagai

Our path today took us across the mountains to Mt Beauty and then on to Albury where we stopped for lunch in a park adjacent to the Murray River.  It was at this location we discovered that there was zero gas flow heading into the refrigerator.  Reference to the Dometic user guide revealed that . . . → Read More: 17 November 2009 – Bright to Gundagai

16 November 2009 – Nagambie Lakes to Bright

This was the last day of the Winnebago Christmas party and a time where we would once again bid friends farewell as we all headed our separate ways.  For us it would be returning to Sydney with another couple (but taking our time) as “He” had to return to work on Thursday.

The weekend . . . → Read More: 16 November 2009 – Nagambie Lakes to Bright

15 November 2009 – Nagambie Lakes

We awoke to overcast skies and a relatively cool breeze.  We were somewhat relieved as the heat since leaving Sydney was unnatural for this time of the year and whilst we like summer, it is supposed to start in December, not early November. 

Immediately following breakfast, “He” decided to have a play with the . . . → Read More: 15 November 2009 – Nagambie Lakes
