OTR: Day 3 … Grafton

The Waterfall Way’s coastal end is at Coffs Harbour.

When we jiggled our plans, we considered staying in Coffs Harbour two nights and then continue north to Brisbane. It took just a couple of minutes of driving in the city to change our minds. It was crowded … traffic was a mess. And accommodations were in short supply. It didn’t help matters that it was Saturday.

Scrapping Coffs Harbour, we decided to head north a bit for a more inland town — Grafton. Being a good-sized town it held the promise of a choice of accommodations. After checking out reviews, we settled on the Heritage River Motor Inn … a second-floor room with not one but two balconies … except that it was too cold to sit outside.

After settling into our room, we drove into the CBD to find a bite to eat. The pub at the Clocktower Hotel served well for that purpose … Mui especially liked the lamb rump stew that he ordered.

We’ve got one more day on the road. Where will that day take us? Your guess is as good as ours.Læs mere
