    We woke up at Sawtell beach. I woke at 5.30 needing to go toilet and there was a fab sunrise. Jake got out the camera and got some photos. We then lay down till 7.30. We woke then and read a bit and caught up in our phones too. The American presidential election is on today. Hopefully Biden will get in and trump will go.
    We got into our swim stuff and decided to get into the rock pool. It was so nice and refreshing. There was a man in there swimming so we chatted with him for a while. He was telling us about how the aboriginal people years ago use to burn away the grass of fallen leave around them before they moved on and then that ment fires wouldn't take off as much when there was dry weather and how the government etc are realising that they are smarter than they had given them credit for and should be doing what they done. Also he was saying about how the Midlands of Aus get temps of up to 50 degrees in Summer and one time he stopped in a garage when we was there and there was a 7 year old girl that had never seen rain!!!! Most of the employment is farming too so getting droughts like that dosent do them any favours.
    We then had our yoghurts and we read our books just at the van.
    We decided to spend the day there then as it was so nice and we could get into the rock pool when we were too warm.
    We drove to Coles in Coffs Harbour to get bits for dinner and we cooked it in a park beside it. A little boy was waiting for his Dad to collect him so we stayed with us while we cooked and ate as he was afraid of another boy beating him up. He didn't stop talking 😅 but was very nice.
    Then we packed up the van after he was collected and we drove to beside the beach and parked where we stayed when we were here a a few weeks ago. I woke a few times during the night with the heat so I slept the other end of the bed.
