DAY 230 SATURDAY NOVEMBER 10 HOME

The cranes worked all night and when we woke it was a fine, cool, sunny day.  We packed our bags and watched the containers going on and off.
The officials boarded at 7.30am so we had breakfast and were able to get to the exit gate by 8.30.
The gatekeeper rang a taxi for us  and one eventually arrived driven by an Indian electronics engineer working weekends as a second job.  He was very happy to bring up his children in Australia and looked after us well.  We climbed onto the 9.45 Wyong train and got to Woy Woy at 11, where Evelyn was waiting with her new VW Golf. She took us to the ATM and the supermarket and finally to 26 Pauline Ave just before noon.

We made it!
First priority was to charge the car's flat battery so we could drive to church tomorrow and meet our rostered obligations to drive the bus and serve morning tea.
