As usual during a vacation, we took it easy in the morning. I made coffee for Mo and tea for me and than we had bacon and eggs. It was nicely sunny without being to harsh. At some point we looked at each other and decided we would stay here for another nice.
Even though the afternoon temperatures where not very high, we figured it would beat temperatures in the high 30s further on. Besides we don’t want to get to Melbourne to fast, as there is a rain front passing by.
Our neighbors, a couple of young guys with a LandCruiser 200 series and a trailer provided us with some entertainment. When they wanted to leave, it did not go very smooth and it seemed they only knew the ‘more power’ approach. Every time to ‘cleared’ some sand from around the wheels they both would get in the car, create a stream of send on the left front and right back wheel and dug in deeper and deeper. At some point they where properly bogged, when an old Hilux stopped by and offered some help. With some bold power the LandCruiser was released and then an 80 series came to help them get there trailer from the spot. A hour well spend.
We had a nice quiet afternoon and at some point Mo went to sit in the car as it was getting chilly, still 19-20 degrees, but it is relative. I made a cup of tea and then had a video call with my dad who was having breakfast. Amazing how you can have a video call from a beach in Australia to a house in the Netherlands.
We decided to try the soup we bought as a starter and then make the some meat and vegetables. At the end of the dinner we where treated to a nice sunset and then it was time to get some sleep again.
