The forecast rain started at 8.30am and was a major disincentive to get out of bed. I made an AeroPress coffee which was drinkable but I need lots more practice. I took Bluey out during breaks in the weather. Fortunately he enjoys sleeping in.
We went to the Lobster Shack for lunch so I put Bluey in the car for a change of scenery – he is much happier staying in his crate in the car in the rain, than he is being left in the van. Outside dining areas could not be used because of the rain. There were still plenty of undercover areas, even after a bus load of Chinese tourists arrived.
After lunch three of us went to the Pinnacles – Anita preferred to stay with the critters and read her book. We visited the Pinnacles in 2019 but it was just as impressive on our second visit, and there was a break in the rain.
There was a rainbow over the road on our drive back to the caravan park.
The wind was strong enough to damage at least one caravan awning. The park has been busy over the weekend as it is only 200kms north of Perth. Some visitors were in the heated pool even when it was raining.
I found some interesting wildflowers at the Pinnacles and by the roadside.
