Have fun Santosha looks like great weather for camping. I have never been that organised with food, we use either stuff in camp kitchen or mum and dad's gas stove in their camper trailer (normally fine when fire bans). We tend to have lots of sausages, wraps, pancakes, potatoes, pasta.

Anyone any recommendations camping within a couple of hours of Sydney (blue mountains) for after Christmas - not fussed beach or not but dad having trouble booking anywhere (national parks can't seem to book so might just wing it but all advice welcome)
