Rosewood Showground:
Decided to stop here for a couple of days to visit Henks cousin. Sadly, they were away on holidays so we didn't get to catch up with them. Picked up our window and put it in. Unfortunately, one of the plastic lugs in the winder broke. Father was able to fix it, however, it broke again. Still have a glass window- just need to wind back in by hand.

Hugh Muntz Reserve:
This was just a car park and back packers just kept coming parking on top of everyone. Father had to ask 2 of them to move in the morning as we couldn't get out. It was patrolled by a ranger. Father got in trouble for not putting a bucket under to cartch the waste water- OOPs!!! Really don't know what the fuss is all about as everything is SO dry! Very noisy, however, free and very close to the city. Stopped here to visit Hank and Annette, who lived 5 mins away.

Highlights:
Air Conditioning: OH Yah!!!! Lovely!!! First thing we did was put the air on!!!

The HUGE Catholic Church:
It was the largest wooden church in the southern hemisphere. Sadly we didn't get to go inside. Apparently we were told by a local that inside it was also beautiful.
