Tuesday 12 April – The Kombi adventures begin...










Current location: Thirroul, NSW
11.11am, Setting off from Ally and Hoppo's house. They live about an hour south of Sydney, in a beautiful coastal town and, by the time we left Sydney last night, we decided to just go as far as theirs for the evening. We had a Thai takeaway, cracked open the gin, and had a brilliant first night of honeymoon. This morning, we had a coffee and a walk with them, then headed off on our adventure. And what a first day it was! We drove straight to Canberra, where we went to the National Portrait Gallery, and had a little wander around, then drove to Pierces Creek Forest. On the way, we saw some kangaroos, and a space station (yes, really!), and so many brilliant roads and sights and so much of nothing – but beautiful nothing! Pierces Creek, in ACT, was quite remote, and a perfect place to stop – there was no-one else and nothing else there, except for a creek (unsurprisingly) and a picnic table. What a beautiful place to spend the night!
