DAZA

what date are you going to yamba?

its a gr8t place your staying at.its set up well for families for fishing and activities etc.
also its a stones throw from town (yamba) for supplies, liquid & the other stuff.

Never liked to go away in the silly season mind you this year I am working both xmas and boxing day (BUGGA) but am escaping to Somerset Dam the 2nd week in Dec for 4 days (Fri, Sat, Sun and Monday). Been keen to wet a line for ages so if anyone is interested drop me a line and I will let you know where we will be camped.

Yamba is a very nice area have not been there for years.

Well, we're off to Teewah for Xmas! Well, we're actually going to the Beachfront camping ground on Teewah for 2 1/2 weeks from Dec 18. One more year of watching idiots fly past at 80km/h through areas where kids are playing on the foreshore, the area between the first and third cuttings on Teewah is to be closed to vehicles from March next year, a great thing I say. Before Dec 24 and after Jan 1 it'll be fine though. Enjoy Yamba, great place to kick back isn't it.

QLD to Great Ocean Road, Adelaide with the rellies for Christmas, backtrack to Vic high country, Canberra, Blue Mountains, Do a lap on the Mt for the kids then QLD.

I have always avoided going camping during the silly season ... for obvious reasons.. I got talked into it a couple of years ago and couldn't believe tent city on Teewah beach...

Now the missus wants to go away again this year.... and for the life of us I can't find anywhere around the Brissy (preferably to the north as I am on the Sunshine Coast) to go that won't be jam packed over the break.

I am really not looking forward to it at all. :(

Going to Tassie for the 2nd time to really have a good look at parts of it after my exploratory tour two years ago.

Leave the GC on Dec 7 to get on the ferry on the 10th and sail back across on Jan 12. My rough itinerary has me in Stanley, Deloraine, Bruny Island, Southport, Richmond (Xmas), Wayatinah (NYE) and some undecided places but two thirds of it is booked.

I'm happy to catch up with any Taswegian EO people while I'm there (or EOers who are visiting like me). What impressed me most was the sheer hospitality of the locals no matter where I went. I'd wander into a pub and within minutes people were talking to me. The same happened in caravan parks, hotels, clubs, etc.

NYE in Wayatinah was magic. I was invited to join what was a group of five families and sit around their campfire on NYE. (I was camped about 30m away). Apparently they go there every year and I'll be back and hopefully welcome.

Looking forward to it!
