After a late night for the kids, we were blessed with a sleep in till 7:30..... Despite all the dogs in the caravan park going off at every bit of movement. I broke all my rules and let the kids play their iPads for an hour or so whilst we drifted in and out of sleep, before succumbing and getting up for Brekkie.
I cooked bacon and eggs for the kids and I, and then eventually we went for a walk into "town" to get some stuff and just have a look around.
Before we knew it, it was lunch time and we headed back to the van.
Dylan had been hassling me every 5 minutes to do some fishing, so I got out the shrimp pot and rods and finally headed down to the lake to satisfy his needs. After 3 minutes and no bites, Dylan's patience had run out (gee....: there's a surprise), and he took off with Tyler to be grow a ball around instead.
I couldn't even get a shrimp into the net, never mind a carp that is supposed to be so prolific in the lake, but just standing out on the jetty with no-one bothering me and the peacefulness of the water shimmering in the afternoon sun was well worth it. - and the couple of cans of bourbon I had may have also helped.
If it wasn't for the building need to relieve some pressure of the drinks, I may well have stayed there.... But I also needed a refill do something had to win! Got a fire sorted for tonight. Time to relax in a chair.
