First 'extended' stay in van....40 mins from Coffs

Thanks for all the help with picking a park near Coffs, we are going to try out White Albatross at Nambucca Heads. Have a site on the lagoon edge for approx 10 days. Only 40 mins from work so I can travel back for the 1 day for work and other days for kid commitments.

Still having problems with our new van re hot water system (which we didn't realise was a problem). Replaced the diode and it heats up beautifully but turn on the taps and nothing but cold water comes out. Pump is working, and we know there is hot water, just doesn't seem to want to make its way out :( Luckily the park has an amenities block and power etc. Still sorting out a battery issue...such as we don't have one! I guess this is what all these small trips are about, sorting out the glitches.

Going to set up the annexe and will have daughter and friend in there, hopefully they will be warm enough on the cots and with doonahs. The park is even pet friendly so our very spoilt, old staffy Zoe will be coming for a few days too.

We are now working out the minimum basic requirements to stock the van with and I'm sure I'll forget something. Hubby is giving me the speech on necessity only and not adding to the weight. Im thinking of blow up chairs for the girls in the annexe!!!

Any suggestions or comments on the park welcome. So far only thing I haven't found out is if they have internet but I have my mobile broadband so am praying for good reception.
