Dr Bob - Sunday: second last day in Kuranda

Check the oil, water etc.  Look underneath for anything loose - both car and van. Change fuel filter. Car wouldn't start. Prime fuel filter. Car would start. Fill water tanks. Make shopping list for tomorrow. Do the washing. Drive to Wilsons Lookout. Light the fire. Have tea . Go to bed.

Well actually there was a little more to the day.

Firstly, Duds and Lorraine were up early, had everything out of the car and repacked ready for the Cape before we could get our table set up. Not a swear word was heard, although Ian did say later that didn't mean there weren't any. Things  unravelled slightly when Lorraine tried to get the shower and toilet from the ensuite on to the roof rack. Apparently the whole episode was a breeze, and room was even found for Maureen.

Another little incident occurred whilst we were sitting outside a coffee shop, having coffee of course, when a tribe of Japanese students went past, ushered on by a very serious overseer or teacher,  into Foodworks a few shops down the road. A few minutes later a lost looking female Japanese student was passing the same way, and I thought I would be a good Aussie, so pointed to Foodworks and said "they have all gone in there". She gave me a big smile, along with a bewildered look, nodded her head and said something in Japanese, walked a few steps down the road which she then crossed and walked back the way she had come. Poor girl must have thought I was a bit weird!
