The Central Coast


The Sunday train service to Sydney is the only one each week that doesn't involve a bus, just a train... all the way. So, setting off at 7am, we gently trundled East, leaving the Riverina and passing through country towns until we reached Sydney 9 hours later. From Central, we jumped straight on a suburban service North, passing over and around the inlets of Brisbane Water, arriving at Gosford at about 5.30. Next morning I had an early morning run down to a misty Terrigal and along the sand next to The Pacific as the sun burnt through. On Christmas eve, after admiring the resident Rainbow Lorikeets on the veranda, I kayaked in the surf ahead of an evening carol service. Later we ate the Christmas cupcakes we bought afterwards while watching more carols from Melbourne.
