SA Again Part 2

Hi To all my patient readers, After the tablet ceased doing what I wanted it to, here I am again.
We were up to the snake!! Of course we had to by more  wine to calm our nerves! Needless to say, we keep seeing "snakes" every where now. Not any sightings have been proven. Thank heavens. Then it was back , ( for me), to Victor Harbor. a campsite I have been to before, the Uniting Church Camp, at Adare Park, basic, but clean , flat sites with enough trees to shade you when you want it. So here we are on countdown to Sth America and Antarctica, 3 days to go. We have been madly packing thermals and shorts. Madness trying to deal with two seasons. So far my luggage only weighs 13 Kilos, I must be leaving something out!! A small panic when I couldn,t find the binoculars, but they turned up, in a corner of the case packed there weeks ago so I didn't forget them. Also have to get more than one camera battery, as the cold shortens the life of them. Imagine the magnificent shot of a whale or anything and the battery dies! So I bought 2 more. Carol and Rob are looking after me really well, driving me to town for a haircut and waiting around. Tonight we go to dine with friends of theirs who I have previously met, that will be nice.
 So there we have it, almost ready to leave for the great white continent. Probably won't have access down there, , so you will have to wait for march for the next instalment, hopefully with photos. Keep safe until March
 Vicki
