Jobs at Nuriootpa

We walked from the caravan park to Barista Sista for coffee and sourdough fruit toast. I walked Bluey back to get the car as Anita did more shopping. Park Ave runs between the rear of the shops and North Para River. Vines grow the other side of the river, and on Park Ave I was impressed by these two grand gum trees. The concrete levee bank is designed to protect Nuriootpa from 1 in 100 year flood events. Demountable flood barriers are used in other parts of the town.

After it had warmed up a bit, it was another pleasant sunny day following a minimum of -2.3°C at 7am.

I finally got around to vacuuming the dirt off the floor of the car. Our table in the Bushtracker has become a bit loose and creaky, so I removed it, cleaned parts otherwise hard to reach, tightened all of the retaining screws, and put it back together. It is a lot better but not perfect.

Tilly had lots of outdoor time, but I had to shoot away a magpie that was pestering her. When we all went out for dinner, I put Bluey’s warmest coat on him and let him sleep in the car. He gets far less stressed doing this than if we leave him at home in the van.

Our meal at fermentAsian was delicious, and from all accounts, the wine was excellent.
