Day 20: Victor Harbor

Wow it was windy last night! A strong front came through and buffeted the carvan around quite a bit. I woke up quite a few times overnight to bangs and shudders. Fortunately we survived the night unscathed, and there were also no issues at the park. Maybe Victor Harbor is used to strong winds!

It also started raining early morning and then showers on and off the rest of the day.

Teresa was still feeling really tired, and I needed to get some work done so we decided today is a rest day. So nothing much to report.

We did witness two new caravans arriving. The first was a popup like the one we used to have (with the beds on each end that pull out). Brought back memories watching them pull up. The other arrival parked almost next to us and is a wagon with a fold-out tent on the roof rack. We’d seen them on 4WD vehicles before, but not on a smaller car. Given the cold night tonight, Teresa and I both agree we would rather be in our warm van than in a tent tonight! Regardless, we no longer have our oasis at the back of the caravan park. Oh well.

Some locals I spoke to recommended a wood fired pizza place, so we went there for pizza dinner. It was pretty good – it’s been a long time since we purchased pizza (Teresa usually makes it). We could actually make pizza with the Weber and pizza stone Teresa brought with us. But take away is a lot easier than making ourselves. Particularly when it’s really cold outside.

Finally for today, I merged the panorama I took at the Bluff two nights ago. Click on the image for a larger version.

Bonus Seagull! I was quite proud of taking this shot – it’s quite hard to capture a flying bird.
