Bill's cousin Jocelyn and her husband Steve have recently moved from Sydney to Avoca Beach on the Central Coast about on and a half hours north of Sydney. They had lived in Castle Hill for many years which was our Sydney home away from home. The plan was Amy, Lachlan and I were heading up there for Easter, however as Amy's new bird arrived the week before Easter she needed to stay home and help him settle in. It has been a long time since we have gone away at Easter as there are usually crowds of people around everywhere and the traffic is chaotic.
Lachlan and I left on Good Friday around 10am hoping that all the crazy drivers would be well on their way. We had a pretty good run, but still hit a few bottle necks on the Hume Highway and then the Pacific Highway was pretty congested but we arrived safe and sound. We had a very relaxing time with them in their magnificent new house, our new holiday home we decided to call it! They have lots of spare rooms and their son Chris and daughter in law Siobhan were also there so Lachlan enjoyed catching up with them. Had a bit of a drive around the local area, walks on the beach, chilling out on the couch reading or watching Nailed It! Was a relaxing weekend.
We left Monday morning at 10am and managed to get into Sydney and out the other side without too much hassle and then a smooth run home to Canberra where Bill and Amy and managed to survive without Lachlan and I!
