Not much happening today


Well today was a very uneventful day.  We packed up nice and early and hit the road to Tamworth.  It wasn’t too far but it really just dragged on and on.  I mean the fact where were even talking about politics tells you how uneventful it was.  We stopped in Coonabarabran for morning tea.  We managed to find a lovey park on a creek.  It was full of leaves changing colour with the season and starting to fall off.  Hamish befriended one of the local kids and he was in heaven sharing his cars and playing with him.

Kayla just happily played on her little rug whilst we had our coffee and cake.  We thought it was going to be hard to get Hamish away but we did manage to get him back into the car after a chat with the people who were looking after the other boy.  They were kind enough however drinking in a park at 11am isn’t really my cup of tea. 
She starts with a clean outfit at the start of the day, honest.
 
Making sure the goose doesn't come and get her biscuit.
 

Gunnedah was our stop for lunch before heading off on the final leg.  Finding our way to the caravan park in Tamworth was a little harder than expected when the navigator took us to the opposite end of the street to where we needed to be.  We eventually made it there however after Jason paid for the two nights he was informed there was no toddler bathroom or kids playground as advertised.  They had decided to do them up and we were two days early for their re-opening.  Fine I thought at first until I discovered that they charged us for Hamish for the night.  Seriously if you aren’t offering everything you advertise you need to drop your rates.  It really wasn’t worth it in my opinion.

I tried to take a picture of the falling leaves...
but they just blended in.
 
Setting up beside us was a couple with their son (who was nearly 2 years old) from Perth.  They have been travelling since August last year.  It was great chatting to them and hearing about their travels and experiences.  They let us check out their van which was nice but it isn’t one I would like layout wise.  We then set about the usual routine and I had to bath Kayla in the laundry tub as that seemed the easiest option.
