Day 398 Weldborough Wednesday 29th February 2012

Pancakes Yum

Milking time thwarts biker and provides manure some of which now coats the underside of our camper

Myrtle Rainforest walk near Weldborough

Dinner

Tuck in

Hi All,

There was a miracle this morning. We packed up and were out of our spot before the appointed time. This was a proper pack up, orderly, not like some of our other “quick” pack ups which have left us wondering where we put everything.

We spent some time last night and again over breakfast discussing improvements to our rig and have decided that we will head home to make a number of improvements in April. Improvements include a slide out storage box and an underslung water tank. Just imagine how quick our pack ups will be if we don’t need to lug all the plastic boxes in and and out!

We stopped for lunch at Elephant Pancakes mine tandoori chicken and Simon's salmon, wine and Camembert followed by pancakes of brandies apricots and lemon and sugar. After literally rolling out of the restaurant we headed up the road unsure of where we would camp for the night.

We caught up to a biker who sped past us proving the tortoise and the hare story. We also picked up some free fertilizer, not that it will benefit the camper trailer.

Later we stopped to do the Rain forest walk of ancient Myrtle trees and man ferns, two minutes later we found our camp for the night behind the hotel in Weldborough. Must be a congregating spot for South Aussies as there were 5 other SA plated vehicles already camped. All in there were 13 campers behind the hotel, most went to the pub for dinner. We had squid again..... hard life. This time Simon included some Chinese 5 spice powder purchased during our shopping trip in St Helens.

Best squid so far! Thanks chef!

We will be incommunicado for a few days no phone reception in Mt William National Park/Musselroe Bay.

Cheers

Susan
