What a star
After Jade competed in Taree and making a final we headed off on our big adventure at 12.15pm. My brother in law kindly printed off directions from the net turn for turn all the way to Darwin but there were no town names. So I put Moree into my Garmin (Navman) and it sent us off to Lansdowne and the Comboyne State Forest. As we started climbing a dirt road extremely narrow only just wide enough for my car I had to put it into 4WD there were land slides massive trees uprooted (please stop laughing) but we kept going. Then........it says recalculating make u turn so somehow I found a spot to do this.
But we continued after some time a repeat recalculating make u turn well I was now on the verge of panic and tears then my sister Rosemary rings and I say I can't talk cause I was too upset when I told her she laughed A LOT!!!!!!! This mountain had shear drops and on our way back there was a sign that said road closed, funny that!!!!!!!!
Anyway we turned around and headed back to Taree and at 2.30pm headed off on our adventure and no there are no photos!!!!!!!!
So that was day 1 Phew what a day

Can't type for laughing... Comboyne is up the mountain from us!! You could have called in for a drink love. Paul is very concerned, did you think about taking a map? No not a nap dear, those paper things with roads and directions on them. Be careful and thank goodness it was daylight you could have been stuck up there.
ReplyDeleteIf you had made it past Blue Knob and Comboyne you would have gone past Mt Seaview and Walcha. Turn left at Glenn Innes and that'll get you to Moree. Please ring Paul next time you get lost!!!!He's been everywhere
