While I had an awesome night sleep courtesy of cascade blonde and the two little ones being in the tent outside , Corinna was tending to Ej and another tooth loss I can't get over how many teeth these kids have lost in 6 weeks Shahla her first one with another any day now Ej has now two and dash one with another loose ( must be the copious amounts of coke lol as if !!!!), poor old tooth fairy is going broke .
The day we woke up to was was overcast and maybe leading to drizzle so we set about a quick brekky and packing up and cleaning it all out to put away properly which took a little while but was more relaxing not to rush.
We set off around eleven trying for hours to get in contact with Telstra about our email addy which hasn't been addressed by the useless Telstra shop and we were on hold for hours then someone rings us on a unrelated billing matter , shag me swinging they aren't bad are they, and as soon as we sorted that out we got cot off yet again with no return call , this was to happen one more time with still no resolve on our massive download bill?... They couldn't care less .
It's a real pain as we need net for the kids school it's not like its pleasure , I wish!.
Lunch at an awesome Turkish kitchen/supermarket coffee shop in Geeveston. the milk coffee was good too lol.
Filled the main tank as I wanted cheaper fuel then got food supplies in Cygnet the butcher shop being a good cheap buy very happy there and the servo even got driveway service been a long time since I have seen that I was a little concerned haha was good though .
The trip from there to Kettering was a windy twenty Kms over the foothills and we were soon in the waiting line for the ferry due in 30 mins we were the only van heading over but there was nearly 60 other cars as the ferry holds 65 cars not bad as they run every hour and are usually busy like that , this particular ferry had been in service for over 20 years with the last ferry holding only 35 and the one before 24 then 16 but one deck hand said they need 90 as its so busy nowadays but this was a privately leased boat from the government and was heavily subsidised.
We set up camp expecting a little shower it it didn't come till dark luckily .
Ej went and had his play as he likes to do on his own in his little world Shahla played with her barbie dolls for the first time ever and dash rode his bikes with some other fellow travellers his age then they all plated cricket together kids can be such an icebreaker in this way I love that in dash too.
We greedily ate our chow mein then some chocolate we still have heaps from the Cadbury factory in Hobart .
The toilet here , yet another drop off but very clean was working flat out although the campground wasn't overly full so we had to wait in the light drizzle .
Some journal and blog writing all round along with a few postcards to the lucky few from the kids , Shahla wrote her own very well done there.
We were all excited as momma bear had booked the jet Boat tour for Saturday on the island , bit of a Pissa considering she shit herself when I drove on lake Pedder lol.
Another great place another great day the weather is on the improve too .
