Tues, 16th Apr, 2019 Information Bay, north of Kalgoorlie to 24hr RV Stop, Kalgoorlie, WA (4 years 8 months on the road)



7.30am 18 degrees with the van closed up. Clear sky and no wind.

Headed into Kalgoorlie and parked at the 24hr RV Stop. We laughed as we saw all the vans with buckets under their waste water pipes. We have put in a grey water tank after the Ranger got up Steve last time we were here for having our water going into a bucket. I wonder if they have changed the rules or just got rid of the officious ranger or these people will all get told to leave if they don’t have a grey water tank.

Went into Telstra to ask about changing my internet dongle to one with Wifi so we can use the tablet and update things on it rather than relying on finding somewhere with wifi. Got a nice chap who had only just started and he was so helpful and pleasant that it was worthy of a mention in my blog as I have only had bad service from Telstra centres.

Got our groceries and topped up the fuel tank. Had lunch then went over to see Ray and Carol at the caravan park. They are still waiting for their replacement window to arrive. We discussed prospecting spots. They have gone out to the pending area around Bulong but haven’t found any gold – lots of rubbish. As we can only have one night in town we will head out there tomorrow any case to pass the time till they can get going.

Headed back to the van as the sun set – lovely colours in the sky and a cool breeze. Checked the weather forecast – after tomorrow there is rain forecast then a cold change, down to 17 max and 9 overnight for 3 days!!

Will have to get some soups tomorrow to keep us warm.

Lots of other vans and motorhomes have pulled into the rest stop.
