Had arranged to go
camping with some friends who had decided that the weather was going to be too
bad and decided to pull out of the weekend and the caravan park we originally booked into were concerned that
they also would be flooded and unable to hold our group.
I called around and
found Gentle annie CP and 3 other couples showed interest in attending so it was
Gentle annie for the weekend, forecast was not too bad we thought so we were
off for the weekend.
Arrived at the CP
to showers all afternoon when Garrick and his family arrived and they set up
camp in the rain tried to get the fire going was successful until the rain came
back and made sitting around the fire a non-event, think we were all in bed by
8pm.
Rained all night,
wind was enough to move the camper around a little woke in the morning noticing
the weather forecast for the rest of the day and the Sat was more rain, a quick
decision to bite the bullet and head home called the others letting them know we
were heading home as the weather was terrible. Linda noticed that the water level had to closer to the camper
Packed up in the wet and off home, now will spend the next 2 days
drying out everything, new trip Mel Cup weekend hope the weather gods are on
our side next time
The 1 positive for
them tip is we had never camped or done a day trip out that way a place we will
defiantly explore in the coming months “the king valley” region
This photo shows the water level 18hrs after the next picture, both are the same "fire pit" area |
