2013 road trip - Day 4

As a change from ready-made pancakes for breakfast, we thought we'd try the Dutch eating-house attached to the clog barn. Which specialised in pancakes. They were good.

Then we plugged in the name of the location supposedly closest to the Border Ranged National Park campground into the GPS and off we went. Well, we got to this place, an intersection of dirt roads with a couple of houses nearby, and looked for the signs we were to follow. No sign of them. We accosted a passing 4WD - the driver, a local, had never heard of the campground. We then thought of ringing the National Parks office. Oh, we should head back to Kyogle and go round a different way, and the road was just being re-opened after being closed for wet weather. We decided to go on to Tweed Heads instead.

At Tweed Heads we stepped into Queensland and back, and inquired at the information centre where we could camp. They directed us to the nearest (and supposedly one of the nicest) caravan park where we found plenty of caravans but nobody else in the tent and campervan area. It was a pleasant place, and quiet compared to last night at Coffs Harbour.
