Sunday, 26 September
It was the usual overcast, dreary morning with a very cool westerly breeze, so we decided on a walk along the foreshore – after all the necessary cleaning had been accomplished, of course. When we reached the pier, we noticed a large number of cars parked closer to the town and a few tents. We quickly discovered the monthly market was being held – and we had only brought enough money with us to buy a newspaper! It turned out to be quite a large market with a wide variety of stalls and produce, which made a nice change from beads, soap and candles.
We had previously arranged to meet cousins Norm, Milton and Milton’s wife, Margaret, for lunch today. Fortunately, the sun had appeared by this time, the clouds disappeared and the wind dropped. Lunch at the Clifton Springs Golf Club, overlooking the bay, extended well into the afternoon. The venue was just lovely, with large windows giving an uninterrupted view and an extensive menu to select from. Even better, Norm had a free meal voucher for two people and was kind enough to share this with me.
When we returned to the caravan, we found it in dense shade owing to the large pine trees, so a chair was very quickly carried across the walkway to the beach for the reading of the newspaper.
