8/12/16 Catchup

 Hi there , we are in Coffs Harbour at the moment , we left Murwillumbah on Tuesday after one of the loudest thunderstorms we've had the pleasure of being in . It was around 4-5am when it stuck . With each lightning bolt came the thunder - as it crashed and banged , then echoed all through the valley around us - we could hear each thunder clap 6 to 7 times , and there were plenty of them .
 As a sad note , a young man was killed when a tree was hit by lightning on Mt Warning - it fell on him ?? details are a bit sketchy , apparently he was camping up there , his lady friend was also injured.
        It also bucketed down rain , we packed after the rain had stopped and headed off , leaving around 10:30am , and only got some light rain on the way down to Coffs Harbour . We caught up with Mark , who we'd been parked beside in Moss Vale prior to us starting our trip .
 Coffs had rain yesterday as well , so we shopped and wandered around the shopping centre's for some entertainment .
 Today we took care of a few jobs and went for a walk around Coffs Harbour Creek , before having dinner with Mark .
 That's it , all up to date , here are some photo's from Murwillumbah .
