I usually only get a day or two off at any time, so I like to find a camping ground within about a 3 hour drive. I’ll teach my wonderful Saturday students, then jump into the car and head off, hopefully arriving with enough time to pitch my little pop-up tent before it gets dark.
Then I can take a very long leisurely drive home, stopping to take lots of photos.
Here’s a day trip from 2019 down to Bendeela (near Kangaroo Valley), then into Kangaroo Valley for breakfast, across Berry Mountain to the Berry Markets, then to Kiama, and finally home. A really good 30 hours!
