First break away since Covid19 with my previous trip overseas was a 30 day Trans Pacific cruise in December 2019.

CV19 has forced us to look at what is in our backyard. As most countries around the world, Australia does not allow us to leave our country. Not such a bad thing when you have this beauty nearby.

With our low rates of CV19 most of our country has opened up for Easter. Queensland has caused a bit of panic with 2 clusters shutting down the Greater Brisbane area and the Byron Bay area of NSW is under some restrictions but on the whole we finally have some freedoms.

Avoca Beach is 1.5 hours from Sydney in an area known as the Central Coast of NSW with 40 beaches.

Five minute drive down the road is Copacabana Beach. Not to be confused with the one in Rio de Janeiro, which I have been to several times. This Beach has no crime, no oil slicks, no crowds, no high rise. It does have clean sand and surf, surfing, fishing and a slow beach lifestyle.

We stopped in a town called Kurri Kurri and discovered the Big Kookaburra

Kurri Kurri was a mining town and the town depicts some of its history with murals throughout the town
