It felt like we were arriving back in civilization arriving here today. All bars on the phone and internet which is lovely after a month of dodgy reception (to say the least!!!!). I can't get the TV's one channel to work, but we may get something at night. We've had the ABC, then no TV for a month, so we are well used to it by now and having the other two is almost enough for me.
Our two weeks at Yardie was good but the wind got me down in the end. We've been there 4 times now and done the touristy stuff to death. It was a bit boring with only getting out to fish 5 times out of 14 days-thank goodness we had the sense to take along lots of DVDs and that we met Perth couple Beth and Gordon who then introduced us to the very social people they were camped near. Our neighbours were nice, but just not particulary social as two couples were related and didn't need anyone else to talk to and the other side we had mister perfectionist and mrs nervousness. Just not our sort of people. However they all came out to kiss us goodbye and wave us off so it wasn't all bad.
It rained all the way here and is a bit grey right now, but we have no wind which is lovely and I know the days can only get better. We arrived to find the Perth office had stuffed our booking up and had us arriving on June 21st for 9 days. Luckily we had the receipt to say we were arriving today for 21 days. And lucky the delightful receptionist Jo could find us a spot (the park is really full as usual). 12 months ago, we were here with our friends Paul and Wendy. Today we are parked alongside ANOTHER Paul and Wendy!
Russ has his boat organised already and tomorrow we fish (I'm guessing).
