Brisbane and ANZAB

 This trip will be the first time we have attempted to cross a border since February 2020 - 15 months ago.  We are holding our breath that COVID in either state holds off.  Already Victorians have had their ANZAB cancelled.

Leaving this morning - first long drive in our new car.

On to Port Macquarie.  The road was indeed dual highway all the way.  Traffic was light.  The signage wasn't as fore-warning as we are used to and we missed the turnoff to Raymond Terrace.  Consequently we had lunch at a servo in Karuah.

Port Macquarie is a big town, and has a lovely water-front walk.  We had an early dinner and went for a walk.

Sunset - and can you spot Venus?

(Just to the left of the double lights, between two palm trees).  

Apparently our first PM was the local member.  A Protectionist who went into an alliance with Labor.  Not sure where he would sit on today's spectrum.  Edmund Barton.

We ate at the bar behind.  Not really recommended - but at least I was no longer hungry!
