Yesterday we had a leisurely morning before packing up to travel further south to Bridgetown. We booked into the caravan park in an unpowered site for Thursday and Friday nights. We could have had a powered site for Thursday night, but having to change sites in the morning didn’t appeal. Even though we plan to drive out today we can leave our mat and chairs to mark our spot.
We arrived in Bridgetown at around 11.00 a.m. and went to the IGA for some groceries, then across to a cafe for lunch. We shared a dish, but even so it cost $30 with drinks, a bit expensive, though it’s a nice cafe with good service and food.
The caravan park is south of the town on the river bank, with walks along either side. We settled in and rested for the afternoon before taking a walk in the evening.
Stephen cooked tea, a rare event, beef ravioli with a jar of sauce poured over it, and fresh lettuce on top. Very nice and very filling. We followed up with some nougart. The IGA has a fruit, vegetable and deli section that features Italian food and treats.
Our spot in the caravan park is on the edge near a public park. Although we have one caravan next door it feels a little unsafe. The owner said people free camp in the public carpark and walk though our area to the showers and toilets, very annoying. It makes me feel a little worried about leaving our camping gear outside.
I bought the Starlink inside overnight and put it out again in the morning, just to feel a bit more secure. Because it reconnects quickly when set up, unlike our Gen 2 Starlink, I don’t mind switching it off to save power, and bringing it inside if we are not here to keep and eye on it.
Sherwood camp on the edge. It’s a good spot. We can look down on the river from our dinette.
Some photos from our evening walk. The light was going and some processing and cropping in Lightroom was needed.
