Big4 Tasman Holiday Park Ledge Point

We call in at reception office to check in. Lovely friendly staff chatting happily to let us know what's what in the park and about town. We've taken up the pay 3 nights stay for 4 deal, so when we get settling on our allocated site 65, it's lovely to make camp knowing we're here for a little while. Next we have lunch, I use the grill to make us open focaccia toasties - finishing off yesterday's focaccia bread. Similar topping to yesterday, just use leftover taco mince instead of ham, sliced tomato, capsicum, and mushroom with the other usual toppings. After this we decide to jump in the ute and go for a drive about Ledge Point. This didn't take too long. We get back, relax for the afternoon, both of us doing little 'odds and sods' - Rog outside, me inside. Tea tonight, Roger makes his sausage surprise casserole (becoming my favourite) and I make up a bread and butter pudding (with Thermomix and using the Monastery Bread). We both tidy up, Roger goes has his shower. Now relax time until bedtime.
6/11/24 Friday. We get up after a lie in at 7.30am. Have our breakfast, and leisurely get ready to go out for a day trip to nearby Lancelin. Roger makes up some sandwiches for a packed lunch - ham and salad. We head off around 9am.
We return around 2.30pm. Relax about camp. Roger reading, I'm looking into options for term deposits we've got maturing soon. Around 4.30pm we go for a walk to the Country Club (combined golf and bowling) to have a drink and I suss out about a fundraising walk that is being held tomorrow. It's for the Cancer Council - participants pay $25 and then walk laps around the oval - with novelty events happening for a fun day. I'm in - I love a good walk for a cause! We enjoy a nice chat with a fellow who has a holiday house here in Ledge Point, before heading back to our caravan for tea. Tea tonight is the leftovers from last night's tea - so reheated sausage surprise, followed by bread and butter pudding. Roger has his shower and I try and do some Christmas 'window shopping' on the laptop to get ideas - but no go, after lots of wasted time trying, I can't get on the internet for some reason (reception trouble I guess). Tidy up and relax before bed.
7/11/24 Saturday. I get up 6am to give myself time to be ready for the fundraising walk that is happening this morning. This walk is being organised by the Ledge Point Country Club - as part of their fundraising for Cancer Council. Roger is happy to do his own thing about our campsite this morning. So we both have our breakfast, porridge and cuppas, then tidy up, before I get ready and leave, to walk to the event area.
Roger does come and check on me a couple of times, to see how I'm going, throughout the morning. He drives.
I walk back to our camp around 2pm. Join Roger in relaxing about camp reading our books. We have a cuppa and I snack on some fruit (a couple of mandarins) and a nut bar. I have a shower and get ready for us to head to the Country Club for the evening. We walk - leaving around 5.30pm.
We get back before 9pm. Roger goes and has his shower. I write up this, as we relax before bed.
8/11/24 Sunday. No rush today, we get up around 7.30am and have our breakfast. Then get organised to go out 'day tripping' to a couple of nearby coastal towns. We leave around 9am.
We return around 2pm. Roger goes for a quick swim in the pool. I have fun getting our maps up to date with where we've been - 3 maps, our Australia map, Western Australia map and our caravan Australia travel map. We then just relax around camp. I end up making a batch of scones using the Thermomix and the Airfryer - they were OK but not a recipe I'll use again (too much sugar and butter - these scones were halfway to being a biscuit!). Roger says we can use the remaining ones as a dessert with stewed apple and custard - that should work. Tea tonight, Roger BBQs some chops and I do a simple tossed salad - just right after all we've eaten today. Tidy up, Roger goes has his shower. Normal evening now, relaxing before bed - Rog reading and I'm writing this then updating our budget books. Might see if I can find a movie to watch....? Watched a documentary about Dolly Parton - enjoyed. Then watched Episode 1 of Season 2 Reacher.
9/11/24 Monday. Up earlier this morning by 6.30am - Roger on a mission to get us to Guilderton to have a cooked breakfast and go for a paddleboard. I go have a quick shower straight away - then come back and strip and remake our bed with the clean set of sheets - hoping we'll get somewhere today where we can do our laundry. We leave here before 8am.En savoir plus
