SHE
SAID:
We
headed out of Canberra for the Flat Rock free camp, about 30kms north
of Oberon, around 9am. The roads were quiet, & we made good time.
Morning
tea was at Taralga, which broke the journey nicely.
The
camping area was quite large, overlooking the Fish River, which was
flowing, but low & not visible from the camp. We got a good spot
away from others & faced the van to view the bush. Mick &
Jacqui arrived about 45 minutes after us in their Kombi, Trusty.
We
had a great afternoon; had a walk by the river, then eating &
drinking around a raging fire; always nice when the sun goes down.
Dinner was one of Mick's tasty slow cooked curries & all the
trimmings.

HE SAID:
Meeting up with Mick and Jac provided a new dimension to caravanning. I can't recall any other time that we have deliberately met people on the road. It was a fun evening, with beer, food, and wine. In that order.
As usual though, there were a few dickheads around who love to have a stereo blasting to enhance the serenity, and grab their chainsaw to cut the neighbouring farmers wood up for a fire. Humph.
