Day 17



Day 17 – Exmouth
Not a lot to report today. Trude was still in the doctors so we went into town for a coffee after a late start. This was possibly the most exciting and busiest part of the day. We meandered over to the Post Office to pick up our parcels that Tia had sent up to us. We picked up our masks, letters and bits and went back to Girt. We then sat around the caravan all afternoon until Mal the Mechanic rang at 4:30 to say Trude was back on her feet. So back down to the Mechanic and picked up Trude. $800 later and the information that there was possibly a small oil leak (they always find something) to keep an eye on it and away we went for a quick drive around town and back to re-unite Girt and Trude!
We bumped into Ann who we had met first at Newman then Karijini then Tom Price. We ended up having dinner together and spent a great evening together. A great end to relaxing day. Tomorrow I have to get up early to drop Trude off to get a pacemaker fitted to monitor her temperature. After that we intend to pack a picnic and head off along the cape to Yardy Creek, might even take a few pictures.
