Day 24

Woke to a glorious morning. Wind had stopped and the water was glassy!! After brekkie we decide to go for a bike ride. This town is not as flat as the other towns we have recently ridden around so have to work a little bit harder. First stop the Information Centre where we found out about the National Parks nearby and the points of interest. A lovely cycle around the Marina which is home to many huge Tuna fishing boats and equally as large modern homes. A nice cold beer before the uphill ride back to camp. Wendy and Nick phoned to say they had arrived but were staying at the dog friendly park about 10km north of town so we arranged to meet them at the jetty maybe for a swim. Alan and I ventured in to the netted off pool next to the jetty and again it was amazingly warm in the water despite the cool breeze which had sprung up. We did a drive to the town lookout and golf course before going back to the c/park for dinner. That evening as I was preparing to do some work on the computer, the screen went all strange colours and I knew it was not good!! L As it is a DELL I wasn’t looking forward to the procedure of getting it fixed under warranty. We planned to take it to a computer repairer in town in the morning to see what could be done. It was a sleepless night for me trying to work out possible scenarios for getting the computer fixed in this rural part of S.A.
