Picking up the Camper Day 1

Left home this morning at around 7:30 am and immediately lost an hour of my life as soon as I crossed the border. Had an easy run down towards Grafton but the running out of fuel light came on before I expected it, so I stopped at the BP at Ulmarra and filled up. It only took 120 litres so I still had 20 litres spare although the car computer was telling me I only had 60 Kms until empty. Looks like the fuel gauge computer still hasn't completely recalibrated itself after fitting the larger tank.
Then it was onto lunch at the Service Centre at South Kempsey and then an early dinner just off the freeway on the way into Sydney. This let most of the peak hour traffic disappear so I had no trouble getting through to the motel at Campbelltown. The trip into Sydney from the north has some pretty spectacular views through the rock cuttings and across a couple of rivers. All up I covered about 880 Kms in the day with no real traffic problems.
