Berry, Backtrack and Bed

      

04/04/2012.


Well, our last day in the Jervis Bay area dawned , bright and beautiful as ever. What a tremendous time we had had with the interaction with the local and the wildlife. This is a beautiful part of the world with an old time feel that is not forced, but is a genuine part of the make up of the area.

Bye, Bye Beaches and Birds




We were to drive back to Sydney along the Pacific Highway, a part " A" road, part motorway, which snaked in and out of the coast all the way back to the city.










As always we were to stop in Berry for a last browse around and lunch. We might be accused of bulling up the town, maybe, but we know what we like.

 



Two photos that sum up the place, just off the main road in the park, near to the train station and the main street. Thanks for the memories Berry.



Berry's award winning traffic cops, missed me this time cobber's !! Did at least 5kph over the limit, just outside town.




Driving along the Pacific Highway was memorable for the views and it was with trepidation that we approached the outskirts of the city. Ben and Anna seemed to have concerns about our ability to follow a map and just wing it. Today if you don't have an I Phone app that has sat nav and gps etc then you can't find your way around. On our way out, with Ben driving, I had left a trail to follow on the way home



Nothing could be simpler, " H " stands for HOME.

The next sign, which I needed to identify, was the road which goes under the runway of Sydney airport. The flyover was easy to miss if empty, but with a big aeroplane crossing it, we knew we were on the right track.

  we were on the right track, thank goodness !!!

We were on the last stretch and with Moore Park on our right we and at the very last second, we veered to the left and by luck, more than management , we were only a few streets away from home.

The Homestead

Our road trips to Jervis Bay and the Blue Mountains were over. We could not have asked for more, stunning views, tremendous accommodations and great company. We saw just a small part of this great country. Thank you Australia.

From now and until the end of our trip Sydney was to be our playground, let the fun begin ...........
