Better Day's Friday 14th

John is feeling much better today .. wooohooo !!! he has been so sick....

We decided to get out and go and have a drive, its a lovely warm day today...so we headed to some of the main attractions of this beautiful Eurobodalla Nature Coast, which has some 60 named beaches not to mention numerous small and isolated coves tucked away down winding roads...





We first went for a drive on the north side of south head a beach called Shelley Beach, where the river meets the sea...


From Shelly Beach we drove on the coast road stopping at a look out at Toragy ...it had a very very old grave yard there and some of the graves were well over 100 years old and the children were so young.. just shows how hard life was in those days.







We then carried on to Broulee Beach which is a very popular beach which was obvious today,
After checking out all the beaches we then drove to Mogo a little country town which takes you back to the 19th century with its traditional architecture. Mogo provides the perfect break from the beach or bush. We browsed the many shops and enjoy the quality of the handcrafts produced by the locals. We had lunch in one of the many tea houses and little cafes which stretch out onto the pathways all through the town.

After lunch I noticed an Alpaca Shop, I could not wait to get in there,as I have been looking for a red wool or alpaca blanket for ages...and low and behold when I got in there she had one...but after looking around and seeing the genuine blankets made of the true colours of the alpaca and not dyed I decided to buy one of those instead... it matches the RV colours perfectly...

So I drove home feeling very happy.. we had a wonderful day...
