On of the Locals-a Water Dragon Sunning Himself
We were to move on from Tweed Heads this morning, but decided we are really enjoying it and will leave Sunday instead. It's lovely on the river-we had a great day out there the day before yesterday.
Yesterday blew up a bit windy so we just had a lazy do nothing day. It was very relaxing. Today we took a drive to Fingal Point then headed into Tweed Heads to do a bit of shopping. The ute was racing and not behaving very well as we drove down the highway, then it decided to cut out completely. The steering locked up but Russ managed to get it to the side of the road. We got going again and went looking for Nissan. It cut out again outside a Holden dealership, so I went in and asked for directions to Nissan. It was just up the road. The car is still under warranty so they took a look at the electrics and wouldn't you know it, couldn't find a fault with it. We've booked it in for a thourough check-up on Friday though.
While we were shopping a storm blew in and dumped massive amounts of rain on the area. We arrived home to find the boat FULL of water and tipped up in the air on it's brand new motor and depth sounder. Then we discovered that the power in the van was off and had a terrible time getting that back on. I think the air conditioner which was left on may have got wet and shorted everything out. Oh well, they say things come in threes.
