Mornington Wilderness Park

This morning we moved on to Mornington Wilderness Park. Not before we realized we may not have enough juice in our batteries after nearly 2 weeks without power.....They don't allow generators here, so this next couple of days could be interesting...

I took the boys for one last swim while Nat watched the genny as we tried to pump as much charge into the batteries as we could before we went. When I came back we realized we had left the keys in the camper.......& it was now folded down.....

Luckily the spare set was reachable in one of the drawers through the back doggy door (because there is a forward thinking person who is ready for anything in our family......) all good and we didn't have to open the trailer again.

We arrived at the campground and it seems very nice. This is our 30th stop and almost 10,000 k's, so its pretty hard to believe. We arrived early enough that we had time to go to one of the gorges (Sir John) which was nice but not like what we have seen so far.

In saying that  we managed to have it to ourselves and put a blanket down to polish off the 10 year old pizza shapes while Dad was the only one to brave a swim....then we went to a waterhole called Bluebush for a another swim. This was great and we can't get enough of the clear fresh water to swim in each place we go, although disappointingly the boys get clean and then just roll in the dirt again.....but have lots of fun doing it.

They have a bistro type thing here which looks nice, tomorrow night we might go and do the $20 for two cheese platter and a couple of drinks.....because my booze hag Mrs has run out of wine. This we will look forward too.

Boys have been great for a couple of weeks but Z has regressed again, so we have taken away all electronic devices and it seems to be working, this can't be a bad thing although he does ask a poo load more questions on the road which is great but bloody tiring.

Another gorge tomorrow, bird watching and maybe canoeing, either way it should be nice.

Jase....
