There was tension in the camp last night as my dearly beloved husband put me under some stress unduly! Firstly, for some reason I have become "chief camp finder" for the group even though there are several others with camps books, etc and when I didn't have the exact details km for km of where to go I got the "you should know" conversation. Secondly, I was accused of not being able to put up the annexe properly, which was not the case, just his impatience and to top it all off one of the other members - who shall remain nameless - tried to interrupt our domestic disputes so he received a 'bird' for his efforts!
Anyway enough of the tardy business of camping, now onto the good bits. As you can tell by the headline we have made a north turn and are finally heading towards warmer and hopefully less wet climates. Talking of wet, yes you guessed it, once again it was wet last night, very wet. To the point that we actually had a moat around our camper. Good way to keep the creepy crawlers out I guess, or those neighbours you don't want.
We had a lovely camp last night as well surrounded by giant Karri trees and even some Sequoia trees as well.
We had walked 'with giants' earlier in the day through ancient forests and tree tops in a Tingle Forrest. Didn't actually find the big Jarrah tree, but went through tons of magnificent stands of eucalyptus trees of all variety.
Today we went to the most south westerly point of Australia to Cape Leeuwin where the Indian and Southern oceans meet. Lovely scenery and a nice day to enjoy the ocean. A very interesting history on the lighthouse and naval wrecks.
Then it was onto Margaret River and a small wine taste was had, just cause we were here, finally parking for the night in a conservation park out of Bunbury. Well the veggies are nearly cooked so better get on with it. Tune in soon for some more adventures.
There will be a further update to this blog when we get to a better place for reception-- the truth will be told !!!!
ReplyDeleteThere must have been a little bit of tension in "Precious Bill " yesterday because as we were sitting up camp last night I heard a hysterical angery voice say "you can do all by yourself if you keep this up " So being the friendly caring sort of person *I stuck my head around the corner and asked if all was ok -did I get a " yes and thanks for caring"----no I got the "bird" -- shock horror couldn't sleep all night.
ReplyDeleteTry offering advise , such as how to take a photo and you get back " please find him a women to annoy".
So not all chooks are covered with the same feathers.
Actually she is our precious chook and keeps us entertained over the radio with facts about everything we pass-- although I still haven't been told when the first dyke was built in Holland.
I am still not flying over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!xx
