Drive: 165km
Ride: 14 km; Paddle: 2 hr
Up at the normal time and had breakfast, with no ride. Packed up slowly and left at 9am, well before the departure rush hour. You need a code to get out of the gate, and people frequently lose their code and then block the exit for the rest of the people departing. So, we made sure we were not one of those delinquents.
We stopped for mornos at a road-side rest stop somewhere south of Nowra and arrived at 5 Sturt Pl (Wendy's parent's place) at 12pm. There was a bit of an issue trying to get the van level as the footpath slopes down towards the driveway. Greg eventually managed to get some blocks of wood underneath the jockey wheel and jack it up enough to make it kind of level.
After making our lunch, we ate with mum and dad and when Wendy had a snooze, Greg went for a paddle at Sunshine Bay, Dinner was mum's left over chicken stew and roast veggies. We both showered in the van and found that "kind of level" is not level enough. Greg was making a plan to fix it in the morning!
Today it was really hot for Denhams
Beach – it reached 38 degC, and although it cooled down a bit in the evening,
the fan was put to good use. Mum and dad
had the air con all day and whilst it was very nice inside the house, you
didn't really want to leave it as you knew it would be tropical on the outside!
