Camping at Port Arthur












Our first day at Port Arthur this weekend was GREAT !!

Tracey arrived around 11.30am with Faith & April, Bec & Claire and as Faith and April headed off with Nikki and Chels, Bec & Fuzz got to work and put their tent up.

The park was starting to fill with other campers and as Ian and Darren were out in the boat fishing, Lisa, Trac & I chatted over cups of tea around the firepot.

Lisa and I gave the kids their show bags (we popped into the Hobart Show on Wednesday before picking Fuzz up from school) and purchased a couple of show bags for the kids - "we're good Mum's eh!!"

The fellas arrived back at camp around 4.00pm with 6 flatties, 2 gurnets & a leather jacket.

Now for the Euka challenge!! Lisa (Boxall) & Ian were off to a flying start and quickly took out the first two games. Darren and I fought back and took the score to2 all, then 3-2, 4-2 then 4-3 then 5-3 and after Ian's "whining" we played on and finished with Darren & I leading the Euka Challenge 5-4 at 11.30pm !!
Lisa and I are purchasing a new pack of cards today (Port Arthur ones). Someone put the old pack in the FIREPOT !!
