The night before Christmas

This morning we left the Ecotel in Narooma at around 10am. There is always a tinge of sadness whenever we leave somewhere we enjoyed staying. However, there are just so many places in the world that we want to go that even though we really liked the town the chances of us returning (especially as its on the other side of the world) are just very low. You never know though. This situation reminds us of some of the lyrics from that country song that I only know a few lines of:

On the road again,
Going places that I’ve never been.
Seeing places that I’ll never see again.
On the road again.

Today we headed about 65km north up the coast to another small town called ‘Bateman’s Bay’. The destination where we will be spending Christmas. Of all the places we have stayed so far it is the most expensive! This means it should be the best right?? Well it is certainly up there. It has a swimming pool, a large outdoor seating area, barbeques and best of all each room has its own outdoor seating area. Definitely a nice feature for the hot Australian summer evenings. We decided to christen it this evening with a couple of glasses of wine. Hehe.

We have a few things planned for Christmas day which you will hear about tomorrow, nothing like what we would have done if we had been back home, but it will be something to remember and look back on.

As its Christmas Eve we wish everyone a merry Christmas. Hopefully the weather in the UK hasn’t scuppered anybodies plans.
