camping on the river

on the weekend me and benny went camping near morgan with his parents at the spot theyve been going to since he was a little boy. friday night we arrived at the river. their favourite spot was taken so we had to search for another site.

unfortunately the spot we found was a little to sandy. we got bogged. then it started to rain. after all getting thouroughly saturated trying to get the car out we gave up and camped there overnight. and woke up to a flat tire on the caravan!

from there, luck couldnt get any worse so it got much better. once the car was out and tyre changed we went and found their favourite spot was free. the rest of the weekend was perfect blue sky, white puffy clouds, picture perfect

we had lots of fun checking out local opp shops and garage sales (bennys mum loves opp shops as much as i do!) found lots of $1 clothing bargains.

i loved their caravan that pops up, cooking damper on the fire, eating stew (real camping foods!)

benny and i wandered to all his favourite spots and he told me memories from when he was younger

plenty of perfect hours were spent reading on the river while benny checked fishing lines and their dog jasper paddled (and chased ducks) in the water

we caught a few good fish

shrimp were caught for bait. i was more excited about the shrimp than fish because i could get them out of the pots and hold them. oh and no scary hooks!

ahh, feeling thouroughly refreshed and happy. i had so much fun
