After a few days of rain and mayhem we have left Batemans Bay and continued on our way south. We spent a few days at Tathra Beach at a caravan park co-owned by Frankie J Holden and his wife Michelle. It was a lovely park, right on the beach. Wayne caught a few fish, I added to my shell collection and after morning tea with Michelle on our last day, we headed off to Merimbula.
My grandparents used to live at Merimbula and it has certainly changed from what I remember as a child. We hunted down the old address, only to find the house no longer there, it had been replaced with holiday units. Very pretty place still. Pambula Beach, which is 5min down the road, is also a very pretty place. We stayed about halfway between Merimbula and Pambula, at a farm set up with power and water for caravans, in a large paddock. Awesome place, lovely farmer - should be more of them!!!!
It is amazing to see the after effects of the big seas and the low pressure system. Lots of debris and seaweed on all the beaches. Unfortunately another one is on its way, so once again we are taking refuge and sitting it out until it passes. We are at Eden which is another lovely coastal town. Hopefully this time we will be spared the big seas and the destruction that causes. We did manage a bit of sight seeing today around Eden and the Ben Boyd National Park.
Not long till we hit VIC!!!!
