Lost Months part 11

Hi All, Well I have finally realised how long it has been sinyce I last posted. Sorry, life kinda got in my way!. I will try to bring you up to date in as brief a time as possible.
 Way back in October, after I left Mildura/Wentworth and the country music festival, I
 headed to Jingelic on the border of Nsw and Vic. I t was a pretty spotbehnd a great pub, and beside the early reaches of the Murray River. I met a great bunch of motorhomers there and spent 5 days there. great weather, a bit chilly in the mornings, but lovely sunny days we had wonderful campfires, with music and singalongs and some great people. From there I droeve north through Leura again and visited another patchworking friend, on my way nortth.
I left Doigs Donga, (the motorhome) with friends Hazel and Mike at Toukley while I trained down to Sydney, where I caught up with Kath and we flew to Hawaii. We endured two halloween days as we crossed the international date line. Our hotel was at Waikiki, and the antics of the people there for Halloween was eye stopping!! After 3 Nights we were picked up by our transfer vehicle and taken to the pier to board our cruise ship. Did I tell you? I went on a  19 day cruise back to Sydney. I was on Celebrity Millenium, and the main thing was we were able to be in optimal position for the total eclipse out in the Pacific Ocean. But I get ahead of myself." First we had to board! not an easy thing in Hawaii. We were queued for almost 3 hours waiting to get on board. With no e:cuses offered, but apparently a problem with the xray equioment, not that anyo e kept us informed! or offered food and drink . The upside was that we made virm friends in that 3 hours with the people around us in the queue!
