Sunday 22nd May
From Tuesday I missed the rest of the meetings, which wasn’t
in the game plan. I will have to make do
with the DVDs of the programs that we have ordered. I came down with bronchitis, probably viral
but with a bacterial infection as well so I am on the dreaded antibiotics and
going for the world record in coughing.
But if one has to be unwell this is certainly a lovely place in which to
be so!
Here are a few photos of the features of the
campground. First of all, there are the
usual cabins. They vary in style a
little bit, but here is one.
There is also a motel, I could only fit a small part of that
into the photo.
And a lovely feature is the little prayer chapel, which is
open all the time.
The garden is starting to show its autumn mode at the front,
but Is still quite attractive and invites you to enter.
It has ‘praying hands’ etched windows
And a striking stained glass window at the front (rear?)
end.
It is simple, functional and yet a spiritual place and one
has a deep sense of peace upon entering.
Peter drove me down to Grassy Head beach, which is a popular
morning walk for many of the Grey Nomads. It only takes about ½ hour to get
there. We had planned to walk there several times
this year too, but it can wait for next time.
Most of today was spent watching the majority of people
departing, saying goodbye to friends and acquaintances, and enjoying our last
day in this lovely place. I had intended
to walk around with my camera recording the beautiful constant chorus of
birdsong but every time I went to do so I was distracted by yet another
‘goodbye’ that needed to be said. We and
our friends aren’t leaving until tomorrow, and the same for quite a few others
here so the farewells will continue even then.
So tomorrow we too will pack up and head further north, another 250 or so kms, to Broom's Head, back to the caravan park we went to last year and we will spend a week there as well before starting south again, calling in to see our daughters on the way home.
Blessings
