Day22

Day 22 Wednesday 9th May
We couldn’t get away to early today as the snorkel gear shop was closed and we couldn’t drop it off until 0830.
Off at last, we stopped for cooked breakfast when we reached the North Wets highway 170 klm’s away. Great breakfast bacon, eggs, Mushrooms and toast and coffee. Got to feed the driver it’s hard work all that concentrating!!!
We stopped at a Roadhouse called NAUTARRA for some fuel. Got a shock! It’s nearly time to mortgage the house for a tank of ULP. $1.72 per litre, LPG $1.00 per litre, Diesel $ 1.68 per litre. Remind me not to complain about Melbourne’s prices!!
As we drove along saw Rick and Co by a river so we pulled in for lunch. Because of the price of fuel, we could only have Cheese on toast but hey it did have a sauce smiley face on it!!!!
Rick and Tracey are headed for a different C/park to us this time as they can’t get their rig into the one we have booked. So they are about 5 minutes away.
Got here at 3.45 very warm and a bit humid. Brenda had the radar out again so off to the shops( gee this is fun!!!!) saw Rick there, he said in his words “his park is shit “. So therefore only staying one night, he’s heading off to Eighty Mile Beach. We have been there before it’s a great location right on the beach. Good swimming and fishing.
Well Brenda and I had to have happy hour on our own tonight not as much fun but boy did the beer go down well!!

Well aren't you two just living the life of Riley. All the place names are just reminding me why i liked WA so much. Sorry haven't had time to comment but some of us still have to work!!!!! Bren absolutely nothing happening at work, except that I am being nagged for not updating the B&B brag book in the lunch room which I shall do tommorrow. All is well here although it is starting to get a bit cool, max is between 18 and 21, so make the most of the weather you have at the moment. Hoping to get out for a fish next week if the weather is kind. Not going after ellie's though because i don't know anyone who eats them hahahahah. Stay safe and keep the posts coming they are a hit at work.
cheers
Mark
