Series 5: Episode 13

On Air 1st August (Channel 9)
On today’s show we are back in New South Wales. South West Rocks to be exact and good news is the flavour of the day as we learn more about the recent abolition of stamp duty in New South Wales.

Along our travels Michelle is so in awe of the size and scale of a fifth wheeler that she simply must know more. So in true caravan and camping fashion she wanders over when the unit is in position in the park and has a chat. What a character both the fifth wheeler and the owners. Play mor in Cardiff sell these virtual homes on the road and as we get a tour inside the space will blow your mind.

We stay the evening at Trial Bay, continuing our recent trend of eco friendly parks. It is surrounded by National Park and they have recycled timber, worm farms, water tanks and very nice cabin accommodation to boot.

Onward we travel to bust the myth behind the Pub with no Beer, and have a yarn over a few frosty ones with one of the locals. We then spend some time at The White Albatross which is in Nambucca Heads. The park is separated from the ocean by a rock wall which is a colourful display of previous holiday makers memories. It is beautiful and walking along them really gives you a glimpse in to holidays past.

We move through Nambucca and pause at an eye catching mosaic wall, that if you look close enough you will notice has bits and pieces of cups, and plates and casserole dishes in it. Then we finish of our tour with some Drifting and a trip through the swamp with Big Foot. Intrigued? Find out more by watching…see you then.
