My last trip was in December 2019, a 30 day cruise from Honolulu to Sydney on the fabulous Norweian Jewel . Who knew what was to hit the world. As many in my Australian state of New South Wales, we cannot leave our country and more often our state is shut off from the rest of Australia. I have been working for an essential service so had funds to renovate my home, which was a distraction until our restrictions would be lifted.
As many people I had travel plans for Great Britain – cancelled. Then we were able to travel within Australia so Christmas was booked with family in Port Lincoln – cancelled. New Years Eve in Tasmania – cancelled. So we had a Covid19 safe Christmas and New Year celebration at home. There was a very big positive to Covid19 and that was my boys and I were together for these celebrations for the first time in 7 years.
Today was the first time I have travelled from my home since December 2019 by driving 1.5 hours north of Sydney. First stop the lovely Hawkesbury River
Next stop Somesby Falls just outside Gosford.
A colourful bush turkey.
Onward to Norahead to the lighthouse built in 1903
Which overlooks a popular rock fishing spot
Budgewoi a quaint fishing spot.
Caves Beach has 2 faces. A family beach and caves which can be explore at very low tide
Covid19 has taken away a lot of our freedoms but given us the opportunity to appreciaate what we have in our backyard.
Love tree of Budgewoi.
