Waking up in the bush

Sleep in the bush was great. Erik snored but I had earplugs in. The wildlife making its morning calls was fun to listen to.

We woke up and I had mango yogurt whole Erik ate meat and cheese. He didn't want the cereal. We had bought the Australia version of Fruit Loops but the lack of sugar doesn't do it for Erik. It's not the best.

We drank OJ and their milk that is coffee flavored. I do love that mostly everything we see and buy is Australia made.

We saw our little duck family out front of the camper. No other wildlife though.

We decided, after taking our time getting ready for the day, that we would head back North. We have a destination in mind but it closes at 5pm and it's 90 minutes from the campsite.

Our first stop was Bunnings. This is like a home depot for us Americans.

They have something I've never seen before - a travelator. It is like an escalator without steps. It's so you can get their *trolley* (aka cart) to the top floor where the store is. Kind of fun to ride and I bet Taylor wouldn't be terrified of it.

I'm currently typing this as I follow Erik around while he browses. They don't sell Milwaukee here.

They have a hardware cafe for probably all the women who are waiting for their men to shop around. Home depot. Get on your game!

The purpose of this trip was to buy Erik a legit Aussie hat. Not a Crocodile Dundee hat, though that's not off the table. Apparently these Bunnings hats are the real deal.

Got our goods and headed back on our way.Read more
