And another very special catch up

Saturday September 6th:

We had arranged to head down to the Gold Coast to see our very special friends Ann & Mick Lavin.

We headed away early as we are unable to stay the night due to having to get back to Miss Jedda, so

we wanted to make the most of the day. We had a great run from Clamvale to the Pacific H/Way, heading toward the GCoast the traffic was pretty heavy however thinned out at about Yatala, from there it was an easy run to the Helensvale turnoff where we were then only about a 30min drive to Mick & Anns. Found our way no probs and arrived in time for a coffee made by Mick. We chatted for a while & then had lunch that Ann had prepared very nice also thank you Ann. After lunch Mick & Ann took us for a drive to Sanctuary Cove our old stamping ground when we first arrived over from NZ, we were there for 2yr. Man the place has changed so much. We saw Sanctuary Gardens where we lived it looks as nice as ever. From here we headed back to Harbour Town where we had a nice coffee at Coffee Club before heading back to Ann & Micks for a chat, time for a loo stop, gather our belongings and heading back to Clamvale. We had a super run back arriving back at Corphyr Cres around 1710, after a great day with our very special friends. Once again thank you Ann & Mick.
