Well, we made it to Exmouth, and after a few hours of trying, managed to wedge our home (the caravan) into its’ place. The beach behind the farm is lovely, with small pebbles and a gradual slope into the deeper water. So far we’ve seen quite a few small stingrays.The drive up was as nice as an 16 hour drive towing a caravan can be. Dave towed the caravan behind the work ute, and I followed in the car loaded with our stuff. We stopped the first night at a free camping site by a river, and the second night in a caravan park in Coral Bay. We tried out our new camera with its’ waterproof case while snorkelling.
Sunday was spent putting up the awning, and unpacking the ute and car. We had hoped to go to church but needed to put the awning up before the heat of the day. That evening we stepped outside and remarked how cool it was- then had a look at the thermometer, and it was 36 C. But the usual temperature has been around 45-48 C, so 36 was actually cooler. We’re adjusting.Monday was Dave’s first day at work, with 2 of the 4 staff present. Heather was also at work, sorting out our packed stuff, and a trip into town to do laundry, go to the library, go shopping, and fill up our big water dispensers for drinking water.
Hi Heather and Dave,
ReplyDeleteSorry we didn't get to catch up while you are here in Perth. Glad the drive up went ok and hope the work goes well Dave.
If you are looking at churches in the area rock up to the Anglican Church as one of my mates from college has just started/or is about to start as the new rector there.
God bless and we will catch up with you sometime in the future.
Michael
