Rainbow Lorikeet nest, Lane Cover River National Park
Yesterday, Sunday, April 17, we left Nambucca heads after we had walked on the beach for one last time in the morning. We had to cut short our walk, as it began to rain, and so it rained as we drove south for much of the morning. It had stopped by noon, and we continued on into Morisset under, for the most part, cloudy skys.
Today was a very nice sunny morning, though very wet in the grass as it had rained again last evening. I spent about an hour walking around with the video camera, trying to film some of the birds. Following that we drove in to Sydney, just a bit over an hour and a half drive. The traffic was not too bad, though I can’t say I really enjoy driving the motor home on busy city streets.
We are now checked in to Lane Cove River caravan park, which is in the national park of the same name right inside Sydney. It is about 10 kilometres from here to the business centre of the city, but it is a very nice quiet park. The park is busy, so it is good that we had a reservation. Provided that everything works out well, our motorhome has sold, so that is a big relief. We now have the next nine days to spend here in Sydney, and we will do that by doing some sightseeing.
