New Years Eve 2008

We were torn between a crowded night in Sydney watching the world famous fire works go off with zillions of other people or a camping trip to the beach with some friends - after much deliberation and everyone we spoke to telling us we were mad not going to Sydney, we opted for the camping. After all we love camping!
Setting up our camp on Saunton Sands - 20 miles of white sandy beach and sand dunes just north of Newcastle. It is quite a spectacular place to camp!


We didn't miss out on the fire works either, they were going off all around us and we had a truly authentic Australian camping experience! Lots and lots of fun. Martin and Liz even managed to time their call to perfection and ring us on the dot of midnight which was incredibly thoughtful and very much appreciated (even if we were a bit tipsy!).

The partying carried on until the early hours with us both doing our usual trick of falling asleep at some point during the evening.....

Some things never change!!
