Coff's Harbour to Toronto

I got up early and left at 10am after sausage barms and coffee for breakfast. I also had to reset my watch as I was now in New South Wales which has summer time and so was a hour different to Brisbane ( I hadn't realised that) After Driving for a couple of hours I stopped at a small town called Macksville and had a coffee in a local Milk Bar. The owner came over with the coffee and noticing I was browsing the road atlas gave me a couple of pointers for the drive ahead. The Highway had started off as a 3 lane motorway in Brisbane and had dropped down to a 2 lane dual-carriageway and was now just a single road with just two lanes, So traveling was going to take longer. As the coffee man had suggested (and others) I came off the Highway and headed into Port Macquarie. I stopped at a pub for lunch of a huge steak and salad then drove down to the 'front'. As it was weekend most of the local kids were down there and were jumping off the jetty into the deep channel that passed close to the shore then swimming across to a silver white sandbank which was just starting to show as the tine was receding. Suddenly a small sea plane landed on the main stretch of water further out and then 'taxied' into the channel to dock just down from the jetty, The kids just stopped swimming mid channel to let it past then carried on!
Whilst taking the road out of Port Macquarie I came across the Koala Hospital. This is a voluntary hospital set up to help save koala's many of which get hit trying to cross roads or burned in bush fires. There were a number of patients in residence and they all were sleeping (as they do in the middle of the day) hugging various trees in their compounds.
I drove on to Toronto which is a good drive down but still North of Sydney. I was looking for a Scout Camp I had found listed on the web but alas it was not to be. I searched high and low and eventually had to give up as the light was fading fast. I found a public site nearby which was dear for the facilities available but would have to do the only saving grace was being able to see the full moon rise over the lake at the edge of the site.
