Hi everyone, sorry that I have not written anything  on the blog in the last few weeks. We are working for Coles the supermarket and we are quite busy. Petra works in the Deli department and I’m in fresh produce and sometimes in the butchery. We work around 38 hrs per week. We are spending our free time with going to the beach or exploring the area. We went twice for a bike ride and both times we came back with barely any tyres pressure because of little thorns. The seal liquid inside the tyre could barely cope. So we stopped cycling. We spent our after work time with the usual house duties, washing, cooking and relaxing. This week we drove to Port Headland, the caravan needed a wheel alignment and nobody had time in Karratha.  Now all is good and we will leave this lovely town on the 03.12.2022, direction Perth.

His department manager will be not happy.  And we also moved to another caravan park because the new one is $ 60 per week cheaper.  We are both tired 🥱 every evening after work and went only once to the local brewery. Great place but very expensive, mining town. Last weekend we drove to Dampier, nice little town at the coast, great beach picnic area and a n
