#28 Trip to South Coast - Camping

#28 Trip to South Coast - Camping - Completed 15 January

I found a great holiday park down the coast in a place called Gerroa about a 2 hour drive from my place. The day started out with a bit of rain so after a turnaround back home to get some wet weather gear I arrived at the camping ground 1.30pm. Putting up the tent was easy so was all set up and done by 2pm. What I didn’t plan on was how hot it would be - good lord camping in Australia is so different to my memories of camping as a kid in New Zealand. Luckily for me I was beside a river and managed to get a nice breeze by the end of the day.

Didn’t sleep much - one thing about camping grounds is the noise from everyone else’s tents and my mattress was a bit small for my weight so I felt like I was sleeping on the floor. At least this was a good test run for what I need for next time.

All in all I enjoyed the weekend and am definitely going again.

25 down, 15 to go.
