Today will be our last before we move north. We are planning to leave tomorrow morning and head towards Airlie Beach which we must be at by November 18 to go on our kayaking tour.
Enid washed clothes this morning in the laundromat here in the caravan park. Then she hung the wash to dry on the lines. Enid is surprised that they can line dry so close to the ocean. When we were on Vancouver Island this summer nothing would dry. Enid even ironed her skirt to wear tomorrow, which is our wedding anniversary. While Enid did that I unpacked and put everything away that remained in our suitcases and backpacks.
After lunch we walked over to the K-Mart and did our last purchase of major supplies today, so we think that we have most of what we need. We’d like to find a small portable gas barbeque, but haven’t seen anything yet.
It rained last night just about the time we went to bed, and this afternoon there was another heavy thunderstorm and rain, but not too violent a wind. We had thought about possibly going swimming, but it’s a good thing we didn’t as it opened up and poured just shortly after we got back from shopping. We tested the air conditioner and it seems to work fine. We also mounted a strap to the wall to lock the TV in place while we are travelling. We got some guy ropes to use on our awning so it won’t rip off in the wind. Everything fits nicely into the underneath storage, including our two large (and now mostly empty) suitcases, and the empty backpacks, and there is still some spare room in our cupboards and drawers. Everything is nicely stowed away neat and tidy.
And we now have a working microwave installed. The salesman from the RV centre delivered it after supper tonight and I got it installed back into the cabinet. It will be very nice to have whenever we are camped in a caravan park with power.
I haven’t taken any pictures for the last two days, but have posted a number of those taken over the last couple of days. Check them out at digipac.ca/pictures.
