Haines

After an attempt at a lie in, it was porridge and coffee again. There was a cruise ship in again today and people everywhere. It seems ok for them to walk all over the campground and be right by the tents. No one tried to stop them. As I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth, an Australian lady wondered in and started asking me questions. How did someone from the cruise boat get in the campground bathroom when there’s a security code to get inside? 2121 🤣

We walked to the tourist information and picked up some leaflets on walks to do. We then drove down a road we hadn’t been along yet. It led to a state park but the road surface inside the park was really rough (Namibia standard) and I didn’t want to trash the car tyres so we turned around

Instead we went to the end of Beach Road and walked through the forest for a few miles. It came out on the beach but it had started raining 🌧️.

Back in the car we headed for a picnic shelter and cooked up falafel wraps for lunch.

We then drove to the navel fort and walked around looking at the old buildings.

Then back to the campground for practical things such as laundry.

The rain really started coming down so we cooked up dinner and made some wet weather plans before the dash to the tent. Who designs a campground where the facilities are at the furthest point possible from the tent sites?Read more
