Mungo Brush & Myall Lakes

September 2006

Later that month we went north to Karuah to visit my daughter Sue-Ellen and her two boys Levi and ‘Boof’ at Lemon Tree Passage on the way to Mungo Brush; where we were to learn more very handy tips about where to and no to camp. Fiona likes fishing, I can take it or leave it but what I didn’t expect was the boys showing interest so out with the rod and into demonstration mode went the bride. We moved on to Mungo Brush the next day and yours truly decided on the camp site, being an experienced camper from my youth, away from the other campers and caravans under some trees with the bush behind us. I couldn’t believe this spot was still available, then again there were spots available nearer the water, but, I thought this was a better position for sure. Not meant to be as that night we were inundated with mosquitoes all night and for the second trip in a row we were off again the very next day. Off to explore Myall Lakes NP which was really good being able to wander around for hours on end all the while having plenty of food, drinks and coffee with us. However the mossies had done a good job on both of us so after a couple of days out we headed home. We will be back but I don’t like the coast much and Fiona is a rock hunter so I’m guessing we will probably head inland more often than not.
