Emmaville Museum
Pete wondering how a steel boat is going to float! Well today started with a bang at about 4.00 am. As usual I had to get up to go to the toilet. I had just shut the window as I could hear it raining outside and didn't want it to come inside. I put my thongs on got the Ladies key and my torch and opened the door took one step and whoosh landed on my butt at the bottom of the stairs. It was like something you would see on funniest home videos. I can tell you though it wasn't very funny at the time. I have a masive bruise on my arm and back. Thank goodness it wasn't any worse than that. I went back to bed and woke up later feeling not too bad just a bit sore.
We went for another lovely drive today through Emmaville, Tenthill, Torrington, Deep Waters and back home. We went on a couple of walks. When we were about 5 km out of Glen Innes and we were deciding whether to stop for a coffee or not I said to Pete we better get home to get the clothes off the line before it rains. Lucky we did. We had a
massive hail storm come through. There were a few power blackouts and Bi-Lo got flooded. We went down to Harry's Snack shack for dinner and when we got back we found that the campervan had a bit of a leak on the floor. We are just sitting here waiting for the rain to stop so that we can investigate it more outside. Nothing too dramatic but just adds to the excitement.
This is our last night at Glen Innes. Tomorrow we head off for Brisbane to see Big Brother Davo and Cheryl.
