Day 2
Yanakie
Yesterday turned out to be warm and
extremely windy, little did we know that a horrendous storm was
brewing and heading our way. Before we knew it the wind had become so
extreme it was impossible for us to stow the caravan awning away
safely as I was not strong enough to hold it against what nature was giving us. We tied it down as best we could, consequently we spent
a sleepless night listening to it banging and flapping about in the
wind. Miraculously it was still in one piece this morning.
Today we heard that 40mm of
rain fell over the area during the night and was much needed in this
parched summer land. We found out that our little caravan was a safe
warm place and COMPLETELY waterproof...ahh a sigh of relief. Last night we were ankle deep in water,
this morning it had all soaked into the sand.
We spent the day
driving around the local area and exploring the small towns like
Toora, Foster, Fish Creek, Tarwin Lower and Venus Bay.
Our little Pip had a good day and
survived the storm with aplomb, she loved hiding under my pillow
although didn't appear frightened at all. We managed to get a little closer to the water today too. She makes friends wherever
she goes and seems to be welcome in lots of shops and businesses because she is so tiny. She's a great traveller so we anticipate having lots of adventures in
the future.

| Not going any closer to that today thanks. |
