    Day 22 - Nelson Bay NSW to Canberra ACT

    June 27, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C

    Completed 492km today
    Departed: Nelson Bay 9:30am. Went for a drive to the Lighthouse before leaving, grabbed a coffee ☕️ and some beautiful photos 📷. It has been many years since I have visited Nelson Bay. The last time was with Narelle, Pat, Shaz & George, one Melbourne Cup long weekend. I was still living in Melbourne at the time (that shows how long ago it was!).
    Arrived: Canberra 3:45pm.
    Driving Conditions: Sunny all day ☀️ a bit cool (10 degrees🥶) when I filled up with fuel along the Hume Hwy between Sydney & Goulburn.
    Traffic: Dual highway was welcomed but the traffic, especially the trucks, didn’t make for a pleasant drive. Came through Sydney along the Northconnex tunnel, made getting around Sydney really easy. Now to pay the tolls!💵💵💵
    Stops: Not too many stops today as it was all dual highway.
    Accomodation: Airbnb Higgins.
    A gorgeous little studio apartment at the rear of the Host’s home. Great reviews!
