Heatherbrae and Raymond Terrace are right next to each other, 8 mins apart as per Google Maps.

Many people think they are stopping at Raymond Terrace but it is actually Heatherbrae, and it is one of the frequented stops on the Pacific Highway headed north in NSW.

OK, but there was also an earlier McDonalds stop at Wyong, to stretch their legs and use the toilets. They were on the road for about 5 hours starting from when the kids were picked up.

JLZ, I think the Wyong stop was at the Caltex Service Station

Yes, and there's a McDonalds there too whose inside toilets they used according to one of FFC's statements--IMO.

Raina, fair point about the use of the two place names that turned out to refer to the same McDonalds. I remember now looking them up and seeing they were so close together, realizing the same restaurant was indicated, but also that there was another McDonalds that was getting mentioned here and there. The place names by themselves meant nothing to me, NSW is not my territory, and it was confusing.

If FMC was correct about using the toilets at McDonalds Wyong, they would have been able to be seen on CCTV camera(s) there.

No, there is no McDonalds at the Wyong service centre where they stopped. Caltex servo.

The two place names do not refer to the same McDonalds at all. There are two McDonalds, one at Heatherbrae and another one approx 10 mins further north, at Raymond Terrace. So it does matter, for accuracy, which one is being referred to. I would have considered it very strange had they gone to the Raymond Terrace one instead of the Heatherbrae one, which, as SleepinOz points out, is the one most travellers on the M1 would use.

What I was querying was a supposedly approved mainstream source printing such an outright falsehood. After a source such as that publishes it, it then becomes accepted narrative, on here as well as on other pages. And causes confusion, as you pointed out.
