Mon, 25th May, 2015 Conara Roadside Park to Malcolm & Kerry’s farm, Westbury


Cloudy morning, 7am and it was only 5.8 degrees outside. Had our two frosty mornings. Heater worked fine this morning!!

While I worked on my blog, Steve went around the park picking up rubbish - cans and bottles. Did his good deed for the day. I forgot to take a photo of our campsite!!

Drove into Launceston to the radiator place to pick up our new radiator. They were going to do a stray current test to with the van connected to the truck to check. While they did that I headed down to a car shop I found online to find out why my GPS has the wrong positioning. He said he stopped selling VMS years ago and said just to press the reset button on the back. Will have to see if that makes any difference. Looking at the forum comments about the VMS, nobody is saying nice things about the company. Apparently they are hard to deal with and take forever to fix things. Back to the van and the stray current test was perfect, even less then when he first checked it without the van. Got our new radiator and headed off to get a few groceries.

Back out to Westbury to Malcolm and Kerry’s farm. Got a great spot beside the old dairy (now the sheep shearing shed) looking across to the Great Western Tiers (a bit further around from where we parked last time). We missed the shearing which they did recently.

Great to see them again. When we walked back to the house for dinner the sky was clear and I thought, here goes, another cold night. Had a lovely night catching up. When we walked back to the van it was all overcast so mightn’t be as cold!! Should have checked the temperature then.

NO PHOTOS TODAY
