Love a tree
We left Pemberton yesterday and headed onto Walpole to the "Valley of the Giants" and the tree top walk. Amazing country with huge Karri, Jarra's and Tingles. As you can see from the pic Ron found one he wanted to take home, I think it would have made a great Bonsai LOL.
We arrived here in Albany about 4pm yesterday, set up on our ensuite site which is right next to the beach. Swimming, sailing and all sorts of fun things lay ahead for the next three days. WRONG. At 4.05 a gale blew in and has been at it ever since. The forecast is for it to last until Saturday. Last night has been the scariest night we have spent in Miss G so far, with the walls blowing in and out, the roof moving in the opposite direction to everything else and the ends (beds) going up and down, I imagine it's a bit like being in a storm at sea. The rain is not hitting us because to it blowing straight over us, only the really BIG drops make it down to our level. We even considered packing up and taking off inland but it's too dangerous to try and get the awning and flys down in this wind. Ron still has the flu so things are a bit grim at the moment. Never fear Saturday will come and we'll be off again.
