Day 203 - Trying to Get Back Into This Travelling Malarkey


Another sleep in followed by some more chilling out about the house. We went out for a late lunch with Douglas and Alison to a nearby newly opened diner. The food was good though Corrie’s eyes proved way bigger than her belly as she ordered a mega breakfast including a thick stack of 3 buttermilk pancakes at least 4 inches in diameter!

Back at the house we set about doing some laundry and planning our final days of travelling whilst D & A went round to Alison’s son’s house for a dip in the pool. We failed at planning, accomplishing little more than a few notes on paper and seriously increased stress levels. This was mainly due to the hassle of booking a hire car for the time we’d be needing it. The start and end days fall on Sundays where most companies are closed and another of the back-up days is a public holiday which would limit us to: using airports (expensive) or only having the car for 5 days instead of 7 (less time to explore.) We decided to de-stress and leave the rest of the planning until tomorrow and so we made for the garden to sunbathe!

Tea was courtesy of Corrie’s newfound love of Dairy Queen where the two of us upped our games and got the large Blizzards of our choice… so good.
