We left Repton and headed north to Iluka (via Spotlight at Coffs). We stopped at the Creek again for lunch and petrol refueling. We arrived at Iluka Riverside Van Park and set up - just before the bad weather hit. We had a wonderful lightning show.
This is night time - look at how still the water is.
The next day it was still very very windy, so we decided to go to Yamba to stock up on food for the week and do the op shop tour. We got a lot of good bargains. We bought a brand new portable cot for $5 - yes we don't need one anymore, but for $5 we are going to adapt it to make a gate to keep Miss Cooper and Miss Ava in upstairs on the verandah.We got two beautiful patchwork quilted wall hangings for $1 each and a lovely patchwork pillow case for $2.50. We got two lovely patchwork quilted vests for $3 each.
We also got all these books for $4. Wish I had filled the bag :-)
Now it is Wednesday, and the wind is still howling. Peter made me breakfast in bed while I played Fairyland.
Peter and i went for a walk down to the village and bought little Miss Cooper a beautiful nightie to wear at our place. Also got some pies for he boys and a chocolate eclair for me. hopefully tomorrow will be better weather wise.
