Gismo Queen and her King

Emerald - Saturday 18 August 2018

What a lovely relaxing day! A beautiful sleep in, smoked salmon bagels for breakfast (even home made bagels brought all the way from Tasmania!), morning coffee out in the sun with Neill and Jude and so we pondered the day ahead. We decided on some quiet time reading and catching up on domestic duties (I even vacuumed the van with my 12V vacuum cleaner!) while Neill and Jude went to check out Emerald.


I made fried rice for lunch on the outside cooker and our lunchtime entertainment was watching two very small vans ignoring the instructions of the park assistant trying to reverse into their spots - "not that right, your other right"!!!


Sitting in the sun, reading, relaxing - it seems hard to believe we were not even on the boat the same time a week ago!


In the evening, we all headed into Ally and Terry's for dinner. It was a very entertaining evening with some very clever and funny people, good food, fun with the dogs, enjoying our drinks in their beautiful garden. We laughed and laughed and had a great night before Jude and I played spotter for Neill on the drive home to avoid kangaroos and cattle. Tomorrow we're off to the farm after moving our van into Ally and Terry's back yard while Neill and Jude head south. Our little soujourn together has come to an end and while not as long and eventful as some of our trips, we're very grateful we got to spend this time together.
