Ballina; Friends and Op Shops

The second last stop on our trip...Ballina. We are lucky enough to have very good friends in this pretty part of Australia. Kath and Tobes not only welcomed us with open arms but we felt like we were staying in a fancy motel...chocolates on our pillows included.

Tobes and Kath cooked for us, took us sight seeing and took us to all the awesome little op shops to bag a bargain. Ballina has some excellent little op shops which we really enjoyed and I think we will be returning with a trailer to furnish a house when we get one.

We saw dolphins, went out for lunch and walked on the beach. We cooked Dundas Chops for Tobo and I think they were a hit! The best part was being able to be a part of a small part of the planning for Kath and Tobes wedding. Living so far away it often feels like you miss out on important things, like helping to plan a wedding. I feel very lucky to have been able to spend a few days with Kath talking about her special day. I cant wait for the actual day to arrive!

We left Ballina, got stuck in some traffic at Bulladelah, had lunch at one of my favorite beaches, Black Head Beach near Forester and arrived to visit more relos on our final few days of this epic adventure.

Only a few blog posts to go!
Only a few hundred kms to go!
See you all very soon!
