Well, 4 weeks to go until the Bride, myself and the Monsters move from our beloved Territory and down to the Hunter Valley/
Newcastle for work. A bit sad to be going but excited at the prospect of the adventure. Just wondering if there are any EO members down there who might want to catch up for a beer sometime and give us the heads-up on the area and our trip options? Not quite sure where we'll be living but probably within 40 mins of
Newcastle.The city really doesn't hold any appeal for us anymore! Any tips?
Anyway, looking forward to the advice.
Cheers,
Benno

Hi Ben,
Welcome to the best address in NSW.
What's your options? What interests you?
Stockton Beach,
Myall Lakes National Park, close enought to Port Macquarie and the mid north coast for weekend trips.
Barrington Tops and Chichester National Parks, vineyards for R&R. Close to the Wattagans.
Whole heap of
places in the Hunter Valley and surrounds to get bogged and rested.
