Good things come to an end. Holiday wrap up - days 7 & 8

We were all a bit glum checking out.  No one wanted the holiday to end.  So many memories, such a good time.  So we fitted in a little bit more.  Some more rides and a dolphin show before the car trip back to Coffs for the night and then home.

It was a bit eerie driving back to Newcastle knowing areas were still flooded and how badly the cyclone had hit.  As we got closer we could see all the trees lining the freeway that had come down and fences taken with them.  There was a beautiful sunset and more storm clouds.  We were driving straight into another storm.  Milly hid behind her hands for the rest of the car trip when she saw the lightening.  Michael and I looked at each other slightly worried when we realised how close the lightening was and the realisation that we our drive home was taking us into the eye of this storm.

We were pretty relieved when we pulled into our driveway and undercover.  The rain was pelting down, lots of thunder and lightening.  We were safe and the holiday was certainly over.
