Windy Harbour {Caravan Park - Work}

Well the weather is very different to the trip we made down last week to check out the job, it is most certainly living up to the name 'Windy Harbour'.  There is a small number of people that permanently call this place home but for the most part it is just holiday homes, so not many people at all.

The caravan park is a lovely little place, with a small camp kitchen and toilet block.  Now Windy Harbour has no water {other than bore} and no electricity {other than solar/wind/generator for each house there}.  So the park is very small on numbers which was great and only offers six powered sites, we ran with solar for the time we stayed.

It was lovely to have nightly visits from Kangaroos, daily visits from cheeky birds who came up right under our feet to see what they could find and we did see some amazing sunsets.

































Justin started work two days after we arrived and the kids and I slotted into a nice little routine.  School work, walk lunch to Dad and then beach or playing in the afternoon before heading home to get started on dinner.  Might I just say that J did a wonderful job of the tiling it looked amazing to see the house transform over the two weeks that we stayed.

We made sure we did some exploring before we left the area, checking out the national park and lighthouse.  We even headed out for the an afternoon or 4WDing, exploring some of the more remote camping locations and old cabins in the area.  There was even a 'river' crossing to be done.

It was actually a reasonably relaxing two weeks, the local people we interacted with where lovely and other than the random weather the area really is relaxing.

Next stop Peaceful Bay to hide out for the long weekend {which yet again we didn't plan for or remember until it was mention the other day by the park manager}.
