Home Sweet Home

A very chilly morning, just 6 degrees in Cobar, as we began the long drive home.

Leaving Cobar, ironically despite being in our home state we somehow felt more isolated than anywhere else on our trip so far. There’s just no one out here. At least across the Nullarbor there was always a road train or grey nomad not too far away.

We motored onwards through the country towns of Nyngan, Narromine (stopping briefly to check out the statue of Glenn McGrath), Dubbo and Mudgee, before finally crossing the Blue Mountains and descending into Sydney. But not before a bit of excitement climbing the hill out of Lithgow… at just 2 degrees it started snowing, really putting the MUX (and my nerves) to the test. I’m pleased to say both car and driver handled the conditions marvellously - although it was reassuring to have 4WD!

After driving towards what appeared to be heavy rain for most of the day, we never quite found it and eventually arrived home to a beautiful, albeit chilly, evening 🥶

As we round the last corner into Hartigan Avenue we reflected on the amazing adventure we had, the near perfect weather we were blessed with, the fabulous company we shared, and the forever family memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

Now for a long hot shower and a good night sleep before tackling the mountain of washing and cleaning tomorrow 😬Читать далее
