Oz Day, Albany

What a blissful few days we've had in beautiful Albany. It's been really nice to finally set up the new caravan for the first time and to stay put in one spot.
It's also given us a chance to iron out the teething problems we were expecting with a new van.

Anyone who knows Richard will be happy to know that the holiday will continue around Australia now that the TV works. Phew!! That had major disaster potential, especially with the cricket on at the moment.

The fridge now also works, happy days for all of us.

So now that the teething problems have been sorted, we will pack up tomorrow and head further south to Hopetoun on Saturday.
I rang Hopetoun caravan park yesterday to book in for three nights and the man on the other end of the phone assured me "no need to book here love, just rock up."
I deduct from that, that Hopetoun either has a huge caravan park or no one goes there, I am hedging my bets on the latter.

As for Australia day today.... The boys are doing what they love best (hunter gathering) they 're out crabbing and fishing. While the gals have washed their hair, done their nails and baked cupcakes.
Tonight, we'll head to the Albany Oval for Australia Day fireworks celebrations.
