We awoke this morning with plans to “surf” the sand
dunes, so after breakfast Ella & Oscar did their school work in record time
– half an hour! We ventured outside to see what our travel buddies
were up to, only to be greeted by more flies than ever – ughh!
We spent the next hour or so inside thinking they would go once the wind changed, boy were we wrong! They must have signalled their friends to invade because the next thing we know we are in the middle of a bee swarm, I’m not kidding there was at least a thousand bees surrounding the van. Steve went outside and before he had even taken 2 steps from the van, he got stung by a bee for the first time ever!
So that was it! It was the fastest we have ever packed up, just threw everything in the van amidst swatting the bees trying to avoid being stung and pulled up stumps. Ella & Oscar had to stay in the van till we’d driven out of the camp spot before they could get in the car. Mother Nature -1 Us – 0
So we headed to Cervantes for what we hoped would be some relief and so far have only seen about 2 flies! The kiddos spent the afternoon at the playground and using the very novel telephone box!
Sending our thoughts and love to Kane & his family – R.I.P. Bark a wonderful man
Apologies for the lack of photos, but due to the bees this was unavoidable!!
Pinnacles Caravan Park , $42 a night, water, power & no bees!!!
