Day 3: Drove to the coast

So we headed to Anglesea today where we're staying for 4 days to acclimatise. Drove down in blazing sunshine and 29 degrees.

We did the "shop in a foreign country" thing on arrival to stock up. Much less interesting when you can read the labels, but fun nonetheless. Cait won't let me print what I said about one of the labels - censorship!!

When we got out the shop the sky had turned black. 30 seconds after Cait said "we're in for a downpour" and at the point I was taking the beer out the car, the heavens opened with golfball sized rain! I dropped a bottle of beer in the panic to find cover which I think has blackballed me in the Ozzy manhood stakes. Especially given one lot of beer I bought turned out to be half the normal alcohol content.

5 mins later everything was dry and we found a bouncy pillow.

Cait first.






She said "that makes me look fat" with no apparent regard to the fact it makes her look as if she is letting a huge one rip. She doesn't want me to publish it, but I've decided that she can only censor one thing per blog so here it is (she's still moaning!)









Here's Cait on her invisible chopper.























Beach today. It's 7.30am as I write this, clear skies and very sunny. Been awake for a while due to some bird outside the bedroom making a racket like a bunch of smirfs playing a quick session of random notes on tiny panpipes. At first I thought it was a hippy wind charm, then as sleep deprivation took a hold, a deranged R2D2. But as the morning wore on and I regained some clarity of thought, I just want to throttle the bastard!


The Deadly 60 TV show has a lot to answer for. Tom has made rules as to how deep we can go into the sea so as to avoid being eaten by a shark. I told him not to worry as the deadly jellyfish would get him first. All this is on top of wearing shoes indoors to avoid deadly spiders. He also thinks a dingo nicked a sausage from yesterday's tea (failed BBQ attempt due to over prescribed public BBQs in the park). The reality was that none of us could count due to lack of sleep.
