Day 42
It was a miserable looking day today and I went out with Amy, Richard, Cerys and Dylan to Palm Beach, the place where
Home and Away is filmed. On the way we
passed through a number of North Shore towns including my favourite, Newport.

When
we got to Palm beach rain was threatening but we parked the car and started to walk around taking in the
views and beaches.
First
of all we were on the Pittwater side and we had a clear view over to West Head
and the look out we had been on only a few days previous.

After
a while we crossed over to the Pacific Ocean side and the wind was quite
powerful over here. We were walking
towards the area used for filming and saw that some of it was fenced off
because filming was actually in progress today.
We decided to get as close as we could to see what was going on.
Unfortunately it started to rain so we had to take cover. After a while, with no sign of it getting any better we headed back to the car. It was getting on now and we decided to go to the Terry Hills Tavern for lunch.
Not
one of my favourite places, but it is a good place to go with kids and there is
quite an extensive menu available. Unusually for me, I decided to go for
Mexican food just as Amy and Richard had.
It was OK, but as usual over here, we ordered too much.
Then
it was back to French’s Forest for a quiet evening with the fifth test tomorrow
to look forward to.
