Long time between holidays

At last we are on holidays again. Peter has worked 6 days a week for the past 6 months so we have had no time to get away.

We got a late start and it took us nearly 2 hours to get out of the city - we dropped off little Miss Cooper and headed south. The traffic was not too bad. We planned on staying the first night at free camping, but when Peter checked the battery it was flat, so we were not sure where we were going to stay.

We pulled in at Yatala Service Centre to fill up and get lunch. Peter wanted a pie! Yatala is famous for pies - from the Yatala Pie Shop - we were at the service centre!! No pies here Peter!!!

Next stop was for Peter's lunch - at    Peter had cold pizza. He checked the battery and it was ok - so off to Halfway Creek we go.

At Halfway Creek we parked near the fence and sat and relaxed, having a drink and watching the other campers set up. As the sun started setting, we saw many galahs and kangaroos. So relaxing and free. Dinner was at the Service Centre. Our battery was almost full, but it ran the LED lights and he TV - bonus. We have our own water and toilet so free camping was pretty good.



So glad we are on holidays.
