Happy Belate Birthday Denise I know we both had a great night!!!

On the way from Wollongong to Minnie Water we had a bit of rain. We got to Coffs Harbour and the radio was full of road closures. So we stopped- rang the Caravan Park yes the road is open. Ok Lets keep going- Noooo, we were stopped at a place called Halfway Creek with about 300 truckies. So back to Coffs for accomdation. No problem with accomdation. The next morning Ness rang the SES yes the roads are open. Lets go!!! But No!!!!! Half way Creek is still closed. We explain to the guys at the barricade that we werent going to Grafton etc but still the answer was no. So back for a second night, a motel closer to the closurer, the next morning about 9.30am we were passing Halfway Creek. Yeah! On the Wooli road we found this
So we; after some discussion with a couple from the caravan park, about height the current and condition of the road we did this
This was the shallow bit. The car got light at one point and we got water in the front only.
The cat spent three days in the car. We were all very glad to back in Minnie Water.
