Thursday 11th May 2017

SHE SAID:

The hot water system was replaced today; the old tank was producing rather brown water!

We both had dentist appointments in Tully; not very exciting but no work needed.

I suggested we head to Wongaling Beach for dinner. We had drinks on the beach as the sun set; it was a little chilly at 21C. We checked the Darwin weather & it was 31C, quite a surprising difference we thought. The moon rise was stunning; bright orange & full.

The steaks at the Millers Beach Bar & Grill were excellent & the service very good!

PS: Geoff spotted another Cassowary on the edge of the bush as we were heading for Wongaling. But sadly 2 have been hit by cars in the past week. One fatally & the other disappeared into the bush & has yet to be located.

El Arish is a tiny village just up the highway from Djarawong.
We were told that the butcher there is a "Pasture to Plate" local mob so we have been trying them out

The old historic station is worth a look

Lovely old pub...another place to try!

This dragonfly was just asking to have it's

This little orchid came out for one whole day after heavy rain
HE SAID:

Despite saying he would let us know when he was coming, the plumber sent me a text at 7:15am to say it would be today. After his text woke me, I sent a reply of acknowledgement, so he rang me to explain his actions for the day! As if I needed more waking up! 

Anyhow, despite the early start I managed to oversee the plumber, delivery of the water tank, and then the electrical connections to get the whole thing operational. It was a surprisingly tiring day, even though I didn't actually do the work.
