Guess who's coming to dinner?

Well, actually is was lunch and the guest was none other than Margarett, who braved the shocking road  down to the Hawksbury River at Mount White riverside caravan park. We had arrived the day before, after failing to find our free camp at Brooklyn, and this option was the nearest we could find. However, there was no indication of how bad the last 5 km down to the park was, otherwise we would never have come. It is a beautiful spot once you arrive. We were almost the only people here (is it any wonder!) but we hear it is always busy at the weekends. Sadly the rain made our stay here a little wet. However, unbeknowns to me, Marnie had phoned Marg about another matter and she decided to surprise me with an unannounced visit, as we are only 40 mins from home. So, there I was, reading in the van when Marnie suggested we ask someone to join us for lunch....Who did you have in mind, I asked, to which Marg (who had just snuck up on us,) replied what about Marg? So, we had a great time chatting over lunch and it made us feel even more like coming home. So we have decided to return some time next week. Meantime we are in Shoal Bay and will go perhaps as far up as Port Maquarie and also Seal Rocks.

Great spot if you can brave the road down
