Carmila Beach

We had a very lazy morning this morning. We had slept really well and not rushed out of bed as it was very comfortable temperature wise.

After we had breakfast, we tidied up around the Karavan. Then we drove into Carmila to the BP Roadhouse mainly to post some cards off to friends. Our early observation was that a reasonable coffee could be had there. So our orders were placed and we were not disappointed while we drank our coffees. Might have to go back again tomorrow!

Following our coffee break, we went for a drive on the western side of the Bruce Highway. It was nearly all sugar cane land separated by creeks and roads. After a while we came to what appeared to be the end of the public road so we turned around and returned to our camp area.

I decided to run the Honda generator as the battery system had dropped a bit more than I had expected. After a bit of looking around, we discovered the fridge door catch was not shutting properly. My repair was to use some shrink tube on the pin that the door lock works on. It appears that that may have solved the issue.

Later in the afternoon, we went for a walk along 4 Mile Beach to the north and to the channel used by the small boats. There were quite a lot of people walking on the beach.

By then it was time to prepare for dinner. We did chat to neighbours from Tuncurry in NSW. They are here for several days as we are.
