No
sunrise as the heavy cloud band is covering the horizon. By 6.45 though the sun
was up above it and shining brightly in a mostly clear blue sky. Cold light
breeze as it is only 18 degrees with the van closed up. The willy wagtails are
having fun running around on the roof of the van – love their little songs.
Went
online and order our postal votes for the Federal Election in May – on Daniel’s
birthday, he’ll be impressed.
Search
online for a new rear vision camera as ours as started to play up. It has
served us well as we put it in when we first got the truck.
9am
I did the washing, hoping we will have enough sunshine to dry them as the
clouds have started coming over again. There is a good strong breeze which is
blowing the clothes about.
Played
Skipbo then had lunch. Played a hand of 3 to Kings while we waited for the
clothes to dry and for Heidi and Mark to come back from detecting.
All
dry so we packed up and then Heidi and Mark returned so we said farewell to
them again.
Headed
into Leonora then onto the Goldfields Highway towards Kalgoorlie. We have
driven this section of road a lot over the past 4 months but this time we have
the van on so it will be a slower trip – no 110k/h for Steve now.
Amazing
how many caravans, campers and motorhomes are heading north. It is school
holidays and Easter is this weekend.
Stopped
at Menzies for a cuppa.
Just
north of Kalgoorlie we pulled in the Information Bay rest stop and set up for
the night beside a nice salmon gum. There was another backpacker van with two
girls in it nearby.
Cool
evening so didn’t open up the van. A lot of road noise but that will settle
down into the evening.
9pm
22 degrees, clear sky.
