Rob lives in Warrack St., on a steep hill & it is a real test of a driver's ability to try & back a caravan into the front drive at No.107! If it were ever left up to me, I would simply telephone for the RAC. However, Bob is made of sterner stuff &, although it proved to be far more difficult than last time, he was successful on his second attempt, even though three of us (plus the children) had to push the van for a metre or so, into its final position. It sure is a tight fit & a difficult feat - not something you'd want to do too often!
The two-storey house sits at the top of the hill, amongst some lush vegetation. There are ferns, palms, eucalypts & a wealth of plants that would only be grown indoors, in the UK. We saw a little ring-tailed possum in the trees one evening & a dear little green tree-frog on another occasion, sitting on the outside staircase. There are also numerous kookaburras in the vicinity, which are often very vocal, both during the day & at night! We've seen a few huge butterflies, too, so there is plenty of wild life close by.
We will be 'camping' here until about 3rd Oct. & so I will only record a few of our activities, as this is intended as a travel-log, rather a diary.
The weather is gorgeous - warm, sunny & free from humidity; would that it could always be like this!
