Weekend Away

For Christmas my boyfriend really wanted a tent.  For ages he has been wanting to go camping so I treated him to a nice four man tent.  With this, this meant we had to go camping.  I use to love camping, it's one of those great British traditions but baring in mind the last time I went was when I was about seventeen to a 18-30 campsite in Newquay, Cornwall.  This was an experience in it's own and certainly not resembling camping when I was a little girl where me and my brothers use to roast marshmallows over a crackling fire, tell ghost stories and wake up in the morning to the smell of crisp crackling bacon.

The weather this weekend was phenomenal, a typical Sydney summers day 29C, so we decided to head north to the Central Coast and Port Stephens.
A little factoid for you, Port Stephens is renowned for it's massive sand dune that's 1km wide and 34k in length.  It's so long you can't see the end...check out the panoramic photo below.

It was a great weekend away getting back to nature and relaxing on some of Australia's best beaches.

I'm sorry I've been a bit M.I.A on the blogging front due to writers/bloggers block and being super busy.  I'm hoping to get back into it this week with regular posts.  I have missed the blogging world.
