DSC03879 As usual we hit the road out of Sydney. Up north this time, about 35 km west of Gosford next to the Hawkesbury river.

And yes, even though I didn’t arrange the weekend ( Thanks Rob and Eli ) we did have to pitch tents in the rain again :-) The rain was short lived though and the rest of the weekend was sunny and very warm.

Almost 20 of us this time, looks like the camping bug has taken :-) . It just seems to get bigger and bigger every time. This trip we had 2 boats and everything else that makes a long weekend camping fun.

A nice wood fire every night, a bit of 4 wheel driving in the area ( Ryan and Fiona lost a tyre half way – luckily no-one got hurt ).

Plenty of boating that included wake boarding and other skiing up and down the Hawkesbury river. Unfortunately no fish ( we tried … )

Paul made his first potjie ( Oxtail ) and it was awesome. Almost everyone had a turn in either the hammock or on a sun bed in the shade under a tree simply relaxing or reading the paper.

Thanks everyone – we had a ball. Here is a link to some more photos
