Day 86

Day 86 Darwin

Well I must admit today was not the most exciting of days following yesterday. I took Trude in for a service and oil change. As per usual they found all sorts of things that should be done, but nothing urgent. It took them some time to do and when I got her back I went for a run down to Palmerston. I needed to go to the bank and whilst I was there I got a new Anderson plug for the caravan as the old one had come adrift on our way into Darwin and was worse for wear, actually it was non-existent as it had come unclipped and dragged along the road. Trude was also suffering from cataracts as her headlights were a bit sun affected, so I also bought a polishing kit for her. I came home in time for lunch. Maureen had spent the morning rearranging the cellar under the bed and doing some general spring cleaning ready for us to leave Darwin. After lunch I replaced the Anderson plug and then polished up Trude’s headlights and Maureen carried on cleaning. Later in the afternoon we went into town. We needed to find an internet café to print out some forms and then drove back out to home. Went to the café for dinner and then wandered across the carpark and into the pool for a night swim and watch the bats flying around. So as you can see, a pretty quiet day and no reason for a picture. Tomorrow will be more exciting. We start the day off by catching up with our niece up here Jessica Martyn. She has been busy working at the hospital so we intend to have a coffee/lunch with her.
