Port Augusta

Our day of rest…
Staying at the Shoreline Caravan and Cabin park…
It is really big….even has some individual amenities to slide your Van up to….plus lots of cabins…
Awake far too early
Packed cloths, did fridges. Down loaded pics also doing my head in crazy mess at present….
If I didn’t post on FB or Instagram all would be great…..does my head in with its different date of creation after editing pics…
I took some pics with the good camera down by the water front….then at the wharf near Woolies….finally some buildings around the town as we drove to and from Woolies…
Went to info centre on the way home…
John got charged $200 just to check the light situation, then they washed it not good either…as John said a $200 car wash….

Bought the Groceries Bill walked across town we felt sorry for him offered to take him home

After getting back from town he checked it and everything they said was wrong…it was a broken wire going into ABS speed sensor.
I took about an Hour putting the Groceries away..
John elated with finding the broken wire otherwise we were looking at $500 to fix and that wasn’t a guarantee it was the problem as it turns out it wasn’t the problem…
Bill off to bake another fruit cake I’ll make San Chow Bow tomorrow night have to cook the roast tonight….
Off to buy our grog, fill up jerry cans and get last few items of food I forgot….
We did the extra shopping, John fuelled all the Jerry Cans up, I had to buy some stuff I forgot earlier…sugar to make Jam, mushrooms, vinegar, and bits for San Chow Bow….
The guy at BWS where I tried to buy some Rose was extremely helpful, but sadly they stock it but have none….so a few bottles of bubbly and off back to bake my Pork Roast on the stove top….
It actually worked out brilliantly and tasted pretty good as well…
We headed over to the camp kitchen, where it was a buzz with people everywhere.….
Even a lady with a Renaware saucepan could believe it. We ended up have a conversation about good old renaware…
Bill managed to bearly set his fry pan handle on fire and the smell through the kitchen was unreal…like an electrical fire smell….took awhile for that to right itself…
Ph calls to dad last few days all good with him…apparently Sally Moller has offered to take him up to see Mum on Fridays because her dad is in Sunset right as well…but as I explained to dad he needs to make her aware how difficult it is for him to be transported..
Anyway we will see…

Bill chatting to all the travellers at the camp kitchen, very different to him being home.
The men discussed our travel plans from here and have a bit of a plan sorted…see how we go…
I noticed as we drive around here so many wonderful old buildings….Port Augusta actually looks lively…but they doing huge works here and most of the old stuff like the old bridge, old wharf and other old buildings are barracked off as unsafe…shame they magnificent structures shame you can't still use them….they have built a massive new bridge across the river here as well and even some of it is barracked off…..
The campsite we are in is dusty but roomy and all in all the stay has been good…needed one more day of rest thought…もっと詳しく
