Wisemans Ferry over the Weekend
Went up to Wisemans Ferry on Friday night, for the weekend, with Jarrad, Shannon and her family. Unfortunately we didn’t get away until after 7pm so that we didn’t get there until 10pm, then had to put the tent up in the dark (It’s only the 2nd time we’ve put it up, the 1st was when we bought it, about 2-3 years ago).
I quite liked the Hawkesbury river, lots of bends and some moderately long straights, meant that we could usually find a smooth spot
Shannon’s Aunty/ Uncle have an on-site van up there, and the Torrens Ski Garden is a private caravan park, so you need to be invited. It’s not really set-up for “tent” camping, though.
Brendan had a good time playing with Bronte & her cousin Georgia who was about his age.
They spent a lot of the time on Georgia’s extra large ski tube.. well mostly on.. they did seem to fall off a lot 😉
Chris surprised us, by turning up on Saturday morning, just as we’d got the boat in the water, as he wasn’t expected until around 5 or 6pm that night.
Saturday was quite hot, yet it rained in the evening , so that Sunday was cool and overcast ( was a bit of a flash back to the 2009 Aus Day long weekend at Stockton beach, weatherwise)
