We both went for short walks after our morning coffee and then packed up and left, via Woolworths in Yass to pick up some Easter treats.
Instead of going through Canberra, we decided to take a road we had never taken and, although it was farm scenery, it was 'new farm scenery' and the road was not too bad, probably better than most of the main roads we've been on recently.
About 30 minutes out of Bungendore, we got a call from Tinkie asking us where we were. As it turned out, we met in Bungendore and were able to see long-time family friends from Zimbabwe - Lyn and Roy Fuller, who Rob and Tinkie were taking back to Canberra. We chatted for 15 minutes then said our goodbyes and went in opposite directions. It is always nice to see people you've not seen for a while; we worked it out that it has been 21 years since we last met.
We stopped again in Braidwood, one for a wander to stretch the legs, and two, for something to eat and a coffee. We looked in all the bakeries and cafes but only the Braidwood Bakery had vanilla slices, so in we went. We probably should have shared one as they are HUGE however, they are very nice.
We arrived at our 'free camp' about 2pm and Greg did an amazing job of backing the van through the gates and down the driveway. We then had a snooze whilst waiting for Rob&Tinkie to get back from Canberra.
Dinner was at our favourite Indian Restaurant - Kohlis Batemans Bay.
