Housing in Port Macquarie

Whilst waiting for the rain to clear on Sunday in Shoal Bay we realised that Christian's laptop had some sort of virus and my phone was not working at all, so on Monday after packing up, a 2 hour job,  we headed for the shopping centre - the phone was fixed very quickly but the computer required more expert help so we took over a corner in Maccas, set up the inverter and quickstart battery pack, logged on and the technician back in Sydney took over the computer and cleaned it. Well sort of helped but today it has gone into a technician here in Port for more help. Too much technology....
Because of the wind rain we missed our planned trip over the Myall Lakes....  we went to Elizabeth beach, south of Forster, for a night at the beach. Just slept in the back of the Landcruiser and the next day after early morning swim headed for Crowdy Bay National Park.
We spent a couple of days there with lots of rain in the mornings but managed to swim, ride the bike pretending to be a 4WD, along the beach and rode back to the fish co-op at Crowdy Head to buy prawns and fish for lunch on the barbie and a fantastic, icecream on a stick called a Heaven.... highly recommended but filthy. Perhaps we should do a tour de ice cream......
We camped in Crowdy Gap in a great set up with new barbies and we were alone... except at night cars would arrive and leave early the next morning. During the day it was very quite. Christian used the prawn heads to try beach fishing but the fish won in the end! After packing up we continued past Diamond Head to Laurieton where we planned to have fish and chips at the Tour de pomme fritte #1 fish shop along the coast BUT they have moved to Port. Laurieton fish co-op was not as good but Christian enjoyed his fishermans basket.
Robyn and Ian came down to the bridge to meet us and Robyn joined us in Noodle for a paddle on the Camden Haven up to Watson Taylors Lake. We spent a few hours initially sailing at great speed and paddling along the shore line. A few new scratchs on the bottom from running into an oystyer covered rock just under the surface.
We are now in Port for a couple of days washing, charging up all the techo stuff and slightly changing a couple of thinks on the Landcruiser. Trying to fit everything one needs and wants in such a small space is a little difficult but the way we are going we will be replacing many things along the way - so far we have left =  2 life jackets in ShoalBay! 1 taupaulin in Crowdy Gap! 1 hairbrush in Crowdy Gap! .... wonder what we will leave at Rob and Ians........
