Sunday 24^th November

SHE SAID:

We headed out looking for Suns today, the weather is finally hot & sunny. 

It seemed quite hot. I’m not so good with the heat anymore, but to see the Suns in their full glory they like hot & sunny! I think it got to 27c by midday. We had some success, with Geoff finding most of them.

We were back for lunch & so that Geoff could carry on watching the cricket.

I headed out solo in the afternoon, finding more Suns & a very tall Club-lipped Spider: 750mm. In the books it says they grow to 400mm!

Pizza for dinner: homemade, in that we buy the plain bases & then load them with yummy topping.

Caravan Park roo's with baby roo's!

Suns 

HE SAID:

Fighting our way through dense bush, uphill, in the full sun, made us get quite hot this morning. Luckily, we found a few sun orchids. Varena was very happy. What was not good was signs of orchids at another spot having been dug up by humans. Ar$&h@les! 

This caravan park is in need of a lot of work to make it nice, instead of being more like a bush camp. That is why I am surprised that I have not seen anything, bar one rubbish collection, in the days we have been here. Being in a eucalypt forest means that there is always going to be trimming, clearing, raking, plus track maintenance, bathroom and toilets upgrades, and some stage, perhaps even a mesh wifi system running from the office internet. But it doesn't appear to be happening that I can see.

I was not happy with the cricket. India scored a stack of runs and then Australia lost 3 for 12 by stumps. We'll be chasing well over 500 runs tomorrow, so it is as good as lost. Bugger.

Homemade pizza for dinner was very tasty.
