The Long Drive, Cliff Head North to North of Two Rocks & Quinns Rocks


Dec 8
I drove down to Sandy Cape to see Helen for a coffee she makes good coffee. We tend to pass each other on our travels which is rather good keeping in touch. I than went to see the Pinnacles an excellent outing, quite amazing, rather reminded me of when I went around Turkey to Pamukkala the ones in Turkey are ten times larger I might add.

I arrived at May and Brenden’s home in Quinns Rocks rather a lovely couple I met at Neds Camp I was greeted with a very warm welcome. May took me in to the Meddicare center for a Meddicare card just in case I need a doctor, she is such a great woman very efficient and kind. We stopped in a bar for a drink and again started talking to two women and had an interesting conversation. Never a dull moment.
Stopped off for a well earned drink.

We all went out for our happy hour in a club and met up with some friends of theirs and a good time was had by all then we stopped off for a pizza on the way back at good seniors rates.

In the evening I was treated to a Vietnamese meal at Saigon Place with daughter Rachel and spouse Simon. The restaurant was full to bursting, no wonder, as the food was excellent.
