Safari Bound

We left home on Thursday, after a rush to pack, clean and wash the bus.   What a waste as it rained the whole day and we dragged wet sand and grass in and out but we were away and that was the most important thing.   Camped at Lake Lascelles at Hopetoun, Vic.     This sleepy town is dying fast, but they have made the campground extremely RV friendly.   Lots of lush green grass, lovely lake, toilets & showers, BBQs and camp kitchen (complete with sink & detergents), campfire setups, powered sites and on site accommodation.    What a pleasure to stay and enjoy the facilities.


 The silos above are actually on site accommodation that you can stay in.   We thought they were a fantastic idea.   Someone was thinking.     The little fellow below, we think a baby hawk, was in the campground, being dive bombed and harrased by a half a dozen mynah birds.   We were quite worried about his safety, but he constantly dodged them by hiding amongst pieces of broken bark and groundcover.   No mum or dad to be found and he seemed to be just finding his wings.   We watched him for ages, just to make sure he was OK.    He was happy to pose for pics.

Breakfast Bratwursts of course.
Not a wonky verandah, just how the architect designed it to look.
