Heading off from Norah Head, our accommodation for the past three nights. Beautiful flat in a home, complete with an electric Weber BBQ like ours at home.
Lunch yesterday with Mum at the Cessnock Leagues Club, after doing a conga line at the front steps. Nice place, but the Keno (?) announcements are too noisy for conversations.
Brekky at Norah Head Beach Haus, followed by a photo with the lighthouse.
Car packed with a portable cot for our new grandbaby, at our next stop in Thornton, near Newcastle.
We noticed that the Hexham bypass is finished – looking good.
Charging
Last night, I turned off Sentry Mode and accessories (such as our empty fridge) to conserve power. We left with about 30% battery. After visiting in Thornton, we’ll charge when we have lunch in Raymond Terrace, expecting to arrive with about 10%, more than enough. No point making a special trip to a fuel station before we leave.
