On The Road Again…
Well after a bit of a hiatus we, are on the road and blogging again. We had a very bumpy start with quite a few dramas, some major, mostly small annoying ones. I won’t bore you with all the details, except to say we are several thousand dollars poorer, but at least we have new, dry mattress.
Our first stop was just north Bunbury, a big 125 kms from home. We hadn’t planned to go far, as we needed to get the house up to scratch for our renter. Next stop was Lancelin, once again not as far as planned as we needed to do more running repairs on bloody Boris. Just a vacuum hose, but crucial to progress.
It’s unseasonably hot, and as we are camped a 2 minute walk from the beach, we decided to stay for 5 days and get ourselves sorted a bit. We had a bit of last minute rush before we left, so I didn’t feel my usual organised self.
We’ve changed plans a bit because of this unrelenting heat, and are simply looking for shade – priorities! Next stop Wooramel Station. I’m not sure how much use I’ll make of the ‘naturally heated therapeutic artesian bore baths’. A hot bath is way down the bottom of my list at the moment. A cold beer more likely.
Our latest addition to Boris is a pair electric bikes. It’s cost more to attach them to vehicle than the actual bikes – hey ho. But you should see me fly up hills!! I’m a hopeless cyclist so am loving these. I almost look like a I know what I’m doing.
Just back from a life-saving swim. The water is divine, crystal clear and cool. Even Lawrence is swimming everyday (well dipping). Being raised in Glasgow, the beach wasn’t really part of his life. He’s no beach babe.
We’re having dinner out tonight at The Pearler – the only booking we could get was 5pm, so we are treating it as Spanish lunch.
