Another beautiful day today, so we ate breakfast outside, had our coffee and went for a walk.

Drove into town later in the morning to try and find a chair for Ben, he is currently using his little fishing stool to sit on and it’s not the most comfortable seat in the house.

Lunch today at the Soldiers Club and it was delicious. Ben had rump steak with chips and veggies and I had spare ribs and all this for the princely sum of $8.00. Complimentary bread rolls as well. All this and a view of the marina too. Well worth it.

Came back to the caravan and I had an afternoon nap, well all this work tires you out. :-) Ben did some rearranging of the car contents and then went for a bike ride. He found a lovely little channel from the bay with a stone jetty and came back to tell me how pretty it was. So, stand by for this folks, I got my bike out and went for a bike ride also to have a look. He was right, it was such a pretty little area and we met up with some locals who gave us the low down on where to go whale watching etc. Apparently, the morning is the best time to see them and we will be up early tomorrow and on our way to Milton, to the market.

Yes, there is no rest for the wicked, we will have to be slaving away tomorrow while the rest of you have a long lie in and a lazy Saturday.

An early night tonight (they almost all have been anyway) and hope not to sleep in. I have been awake between 5am and 6am every morning but guaranteed to not wake up on the one morning that I need to.

Till tomorrow..
