32 - Wrenbrook to Sawtell

Having two fantastic weeks at Wrenbrook, it was time to push on. Didn't want to go, however we can always come back.......that is a certainty.
So down the range we go.........right turn at Casino, down the Summerland Way and into Grafton, under the rail bridge......right turn onto the Pacific Highway and high tail it to Coffs Harbour with our destination being Sawtell.

Coffs Harbour is not new to us. We have visited the area on many occassions, as my brother lives there and Wendy's sister is there also. To add to this, both my parents are buried there....so we have a bit of a connection.

Coffs Harbour is a city, definately not your coastal back water, however Sawtell still has that beachy feel about it. So we made our way to the Top Tourist Park, and did the usual set up of camp. Good thing was we were not cramped in like sardines, and had no neighbours to speak of, and took a deal of stay five pay for four.

However we ended up staying six days as we waiting for mail, and Wendy had to get her glasses fixed.

So what did we do..................caught up with my Bro, visited the crematorium where my folks are, cuaght up with Wendy's sister and family, went to the beach and generally not much else.

The weather was in our favour as the previous week, Coffs was in flood. One thing I will add, this caravan park at Sawtell has got to be the first park, where none one wanted to talk to you....o'h well their loss. Still a beautiful park, close to the beach, with super clean amenities.

Enjoy the photies
