The trip drawing to a close...

We had a nice relaxing day in Merimbula today, which we really needed- a break from driving and chance to catch up on sleep. I went for a walk and swim this morning, then we both had a haircut, before heading to a nice little cafe for lunch. Wandering along the street, we spied a poster for a Bruce Mathiske concert (he's a well known and excellent guitarist, similar to Tommy Emmanuel). Adam was of course thrilled as he is a big fan. So by sheer luck, we are in the right place at the right time, and tonight off to see Bruce in concert. What a nice way to finish things up.

This afternoon we played tennis on the courts at the caravan park and got a few other bits and pieces done. So a pleasant day. It's actually great in many ways to be back on the east coast, with surf beaches and warmer weather etc. It already feels a lot more like home to us.

Tomorrow we arrive in Sydney and will have the pleasure of dinner out with our good friend Joanne and her partner Matthew - the catchup will be great!!

Am happy and sad. Naturally. Adam is plain happy ;-)

Love and hugs and see many of you very soon,
Emma and Adam
