• Northam Caravan Park

    15–18 дек. 2024, Австралия ⋅ 🌬 28 °C

    Arrive and Roger goes to the office - we are already booked for 3 nights. Go and settle on our site No.41. We don't worry about putting out the awning, just unhitch, and connect power and water. Now we're ready to head back into Northam to go to the Tourist Centre and then look around abit.
    Get back from our drive and have a relax before tea. Roger cooks up some chops on our BBQ with some onion, mushrooms and capsicum and serves with boiled vegetables. We follow this with fresh fruit. Roger goes for his shower, then reads until he's ready for sleep. I stay up - catching up on this as I'm a couple of days behind. Bed.
    16/12/24 Monday. Get up 7.30am. While I'm making porridge in the Thermomix for both of us - we do the dishes we didn't do last night. Then once we've had breakie - we do the dishes. Nice to have the caravan sink 'clear'. Roger makes up some sandwiches for our packed lunch - we're doing a day trip to Toodyay, approx 30kms away. First we're going to call in at Northam to go for a walk. Head off mid morning.
    Arrive back from our trip to Toodyay around 3pm. Now Roger sets out our awning so we can relax in its shade. I end up back in the caravan for a while - updating my budget books. I go have a shower before tea. Tea tonight is Chilli Con Carne (pkt mix spices) served on boiled potato with salad. Followed by strawberries and yoghurt. Roger goes for his shower, I do the dishes. Relax before bed.
    17/11/24 Tuesday. Get up around 7.30am - after reading in bed for a little while - as Roger is already up and has cooked bacon and eggs for us. I do the toast and put on the chutney, avocado, sliced tomato and pepper. Roger comes in with the cooked stuff - so top with bacon, egg and mushrooms - then top with Persian feta- great start to our day. Tidy up and get ready to go for our day trip to York, Roger again packs us chicken salad sandwiches 😊 and we make sure we have our bathers packed too. Warming up today. Leave around 9.15am.
    Return about 3pm. Relax about camp, reading and enjoying our cold drinks.
    Tea tonight is packaged food we got on special at the supermarket $1.60 each. Just heat up in the microwave. A pasta one for me, and a stir-fry one for Roger. Then have banana, blueberries and yoghurt. Roger showered before tea, I shower after. Not enough dishes to worry about doing tonight - will do them with the breakfast ones in the morning. Now relaxing, doing this, while Roger reads. Bedtime soon.
    18/12/24 Wednesday. Roger has us up around 6.30am - leaving day and we're to meet our hosts at our next staying spot at 10am, before they head out for the day. So get dressed, have our breakfast, do dishes and tidy up and get packed up to go. Leave around 8am.
