Hot but otherwise uneventful drive up from Nelson Bay. The big rivers we passed on the way were at the tops of the banks after heavy rain and flooding in the area earlier. The caravan park we are at is right on the river with its own jetty and boat ramp. Very small park but it will do for the two nights.
In the evening we drove into town and the waterfront. There was a family jazz band playing on the grass by the water, lots of al fresco restaurants and bars on the waterfront as well. It had cooled down and was very pleasant walking around the edge of the estuary/river. On the way out, thousands of fruit bats were moving out to feed. Tomorrow we'll have a proper look around and get some photos.
