A well fed rabbit!!

As we draw to the end of our contract at the camping ground we decided to spend the last couple of nights up beside the Clyde Dam, on the edge of Lake Dunstan. This is a popular spot with both locals and freedom campers. A boat ramp and safe swimming area provide a lovely recreational area for holiday makers and locals, and freedom campers are permitted to stay three nights as long as they are self contained certified. The area is also home to the local rowing club so all in all it is a popular area.

Stephen was keen to get Roma (the yacht) in the water for a sail as well as a fish.  Since we don't now own a suitable vehicle for towing it, the bus had to suffice.  The rules allow us to be up to 17m in length, which we do with a metre to spare. It was quite a sight seeing the two Romas heading across the historic bridge in Clyde.







It didn't take us long to set up camp, along with just some of the 'garden'.  The remainder has gone back to Shields Street in the meantime.



You could imagine my horror when we got up the next morning to find that we had had a visit from a rabbit overnight. He must have thought all his Christmases had come at once!!!





They are now taken inside the safety of the bus each night.
